Pair of Expressionist patinated bronze table lamp bases after Giacometti's 'Tête de Femme' (Head of a Woman) cast by Excalibur Bronze Foundry from the Rockefeller Collection
By: Excalibur Bronze Foundry, Diego Giacometti (in the style of)

Dimensions: 6 in x 20 in
Date: late 20th century, circa 1970

Place of origin: United States
This pair of bronze table lamps epitomizes the graceful sculptural style of Diego Giacometti, showcasing his adeptness with proportion and form. Cast by Excalibur Bronze Foundry in bronze with a rich brown patina, the lamps feature Giacometti's iconic female head design emerging just below the socket and lampshade, blurring the line between functional object and figurative sculpture. The modeling is delicate yet substantial, with slender necks supporting the elongated heads while the patina enhances the fluid, sculptural bronze.
Though utilitarian in purpose, the lyrical artistry elevates the lamps to works of art. This set embodies the exceptional craftsmanship and elegant functionality that distinguish creations by the talented Giacometti brothers and their command of the Expressionist style.
With origins from the famed Nelson Rockefeller Collection, this edition was cast in the 70s by Excalibur Bronze, USA, as indicated by the impressed manufacturer's stamps. In 1977, Nelson Rockefeller established the Nelson Rockefeller Collection Inc. to reproduce small editions of original works by Diego and Alberto Giacometti in bronze. After over four decades, these high-quality bronze reproductions from the Rockefeller collection remain highly desirable.
These table lamps are presented without electrical cords, allowing the purchaser the freedom to customize the lamps' installation according to their lighting needs and interior design aesthetic.
