Rare French modern table Lamp carved from Solid Elm Tree with bordeaux top part.

About the Item

This rare French modern table lamp, carved from solid elm wood, exemplifies the innovative spirit and refined aesthetic of mid-20th century European design. The lamp's distinctive use of natural materials and its sculptural form reflect a deep appreciation for the inherent beauty and versatility of wood, combined with a sophisticated modernist sensibility. (Lamp is rewired with new fabric wire including US or EU standard plug in) The base of the lamp is meticulously carved from solid elm, a wood known for its durability and attractive grain patterns. The craftsmanship is evident in the smooth, organic lines and the tactile quality of the surface, which highlights the rich, natural texture of the elm. The warm, honeyed tones of the wood provide a visually pleasing contrast to the lamp's upper part, which is finished in a deep bordeaux color. The lamp's design is both functional and artistic, embodying the principles of modernist design where form follows function. The solid elm base offers stability and a sense of groundedness, while its carved shape suggests a thoughtful interplay of curves and angles that is both aesthetically pleasing and ergonomically sound. The bordeaux top part, likely designed to house the light fixture, adds height and a sense of verticality, enhancing the lamp's overall proportion and balance.
