Neoclassical Table Lamps

NEOCLASSICAL STYLE

Neoclassical design emerged in Europe in the 1750s, as the Age of Enlightenment reached full flower. Neoclassical furniture took its cues from the styles of ancient Rome and Athens: symmetrical, ordered, dignified forms with such details as tapered and fluted chair and table legs, backrest finials and scrolled arms.

Over a period of some 20 years, first in France and later in Britain, neoclassical design — also known as Louis XVI, or Louis Seize — would supersede the lithe and curvaceous Rococo or Louis XV style.

The first half of the 18th century had seen a rebirth of interest in classical antiquity. The "Grand Tour" of Europe, codified as a part of the proper education of a patrician gentleman, included an extended visit to Rome. Some ventured further, to sketch the ruins of ancient Greece. These drawings and others — particularly those derived from the surprising and rich archaeological discoveries in the 1730s and ’40s at the sites of the Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum — caused great excitement among intellectuals and aesthetes alike.

Neoclassical furniture is meant to reflect both grace and power. The overall appearance of neoclassical chairs, tables and cabinetry is strong and rectilinear. These pieces are, in effect, classical architecture in miniature: chair and table legs are shaped like columns; cabinets are constructed with elements that mirror friezes and pediments.

Yet neoclassicism is enlivened by gilt and silver leaf, marquetry, and carved and applied ornamental motifs based on Greek and Roman sculpture: acanthus leaves, garlands, laurel wreaths, sheaves of arrow, medallions and chair splats are carved in the shapes of lyres and urns. Ormolu — or elaborate bronze gilding — was essential to French design in the 18th and 19th centuries as a cornerstone of the neoclassical and Empire styles.

As you can see from the furniture on these pages, there is a bit of whimsy in such stately pieces — a touch of lightness that will always keep neoclassicism fresh.

Psyche Touch Lamp, Royal Blue & Gold
Located in Mantova, MN
Inspired by the Classical urns from the frescoes in the Hall of Cupid and Psyche in Mantova’s Palazzo Te, this table lamp will stand out in any kind of décor, with its fine ceramic and timelessly elegant shape. The innovative touch technology is activated with the lightest touch on the pedestal: a simple gesture lets you switch and adjust the light in a unique tactile experience. The light source is a 7W LED strip with 3000K, 369 lumen and 100-240V voltage. The maiden with the lamp, the beautiful mortal turned by love into the goddess of souls – Psyche lends her name to a sophisticated play of art, myth and design. The light sculpture Psyche draws from the style of Renaissance artist Giulio Romano, revisiting the ancient vase from his joyful, sensual Cupid and Psyche frescoes - and bathing it in the soft glow of the latest LED technology. With an eye to classical myth and a strong personality, Psyche celebrates the passion of beauty through the centuries. Les First: Light of the Gods A luminous pantheon reinventing myth in a flow of energy and imagination: light sculptures with a strong and versatile personality, a perfect fit for both classical or minimalist settings, born to satisfy the senses and pay tribute to a timeless beauty. The Lamps 1. The Idea: Les First – Top Quality Italian Craftsmanship 2. Technological Innovation: The Dimmable Touch Lamp Technical Information 3. Technical Features 4. Artisanal Production 5. Assembling 6. Packaging and Shipping 7. Maintenance 1. The Idea: Les First – Top Quality Italian Craftsmanship All Les First lamps are inspired by the mythological subjects in the frescoes that Renaissance artist Giulio Romano painted in the halls of Palazzo Te for the Gonzaga lords of Mantua. Distinctive design, blending traditional handmade ceramic from potteries of Venetian tradition with specially created, innovative technology, makes the lamps unique in the field of lighting fixtures. Les First’s top quality table-lamps are crafted in the regions of Lombardy and Veneto. Carefully handpicked artisan workshops craft to specification the various components, that are then assembled in the Les First atelier in Mantova. The finest ceramics and skilled handcraft guarantee top quality together with the uniqueness of artisanal production. 2. Technological Innovation: The Dimmable Touch Lamp The ceramic sculpture, core of the artistic composition, is enhanced by the innovative lighting cylinder of clear Plexiglas. The micro-incisions, laser-engraved by CNC machines on the cylinder’s surface, ensure an even distribution of light across the whole pane. The light is switched and adjusted through an innovative dedicated software, especially created by a technical laboratory in Verona. A microprocessor manages and processes the proximity effect of the user’s hand to control and adjust the light. The system, developed especially for Les First, turns the ceramic sculpture into a dimmable Touch Lamp, whose soft glow can be switched on and off and adjusted simply by touching the lamp’s ceramic base, without a conventional on-off switch. 3. Technical Features: Weight: 8 kg / 17,64 lb Power consumption: 7 W (LED) LIGHT SOURCE AVAILABLE: 1 Led Strip x 7W Lumen: 369 Colour temperature: 3000 K Color Rendering Index (CRI): 90 LED panel lifespan: 50 000 hours Dimmer: Included Voltage: 24Vdc Environment: Indoor Protection Rating: IP 20 Electric insulation class: 3^ Energetic class: A+ Power Supply Technical Data Supply included: Yes Supply voltage: input 100-240V, 50-60HZ; Output 24Vdc Cord Lenght: 100 cm / 39,37 in Indoor use only. Psyche touch lamp is CE certified. 4. Artisanal Production Les First’s ceramic lamps are artisanal pieces, and only a few components are made industrially. Due to the complex and many-staged hand production, each lamp can show individual characters, features unique to the hand-crafting process that must not be viewed as faults. A slight unevenness in the ceramic surface can result from shrinkage during the firing stage, or from characteristic features of the antique molds. Colors may show variations, with a very individual and pleasing effect, due to the firing process of the crystalline glaze, such as the typical and prized “crackle”. In the case of gold and silver metallic coating, slight irregular cracks can occur on the surface, as the precious metals and clay undergo different dilations during the various firing and cooling stages. Pieces from the same batch can show a slightly different appearance. Such varying reactions to the manufacturing process cannot be entirely predicted even by the most experienced potter, and are part of the unique and enduring charm of hand-crafted ceramic. Each lamp is carefully vetted against out exacting quality standards. Les First holds to the highest quality standards for manual production, as established through centuries of experience in the potteries of Vicenza. The element of imperfection, typical of all hand-made products, is not a fault – but rather the mark of Italy’s ancient handcraft tradition. 5. Assembling Assembling a Les First lamp from its hand-crafted components requires extremely skilled work, and it is never outsourced: the owner personally assembles each piece with the help of his assistants, making sure that the final result conforms to the chosen quality standard. 6. Packaging and Shipping All Les First products are carefully hand-packages, with materials specially designed to ensure the stability and protection of the lamps. The crates are sized to accommodate the lamps and the protective layers of expanded polyethylene and/or high-expansion foam that ensure the lamps’ protection if correctly handled. These inner layers can vary, according to specific needs. The weight of the packaging must be added to that of the lamp itself. Psyche lamp...

Psyche Touch Lamp, Pompeian Red & Gold
Located in Mantova, MN
Inspired by the Classical urns from the frescoes in the Hall of Cupid and Psyche in Mantova’s Palazzo Te, this table lamp will Stand out in any kind of décor, with its Fine ceramic and timelessly elegant shape. The innovative touch technology is activated with the lightest touch on the pedestal: a simple gesture lets you switch and adjust the light in a unique tactile experience. The light source is a 7W LED strip with 3000K, 369 Lumen and 100-240V voltage. The maiden with the lamp, the beautiful mortal turned by love into the goddess of souls – Psyche lends her name to a sophisticated play of art, myth and design. The light sculpture Psyche draws from the style of Renaissance artist Giulio Romano, revisiting the ancient vase from his joyful, sensual Cupid and Psyche frescoes - and bathing it in the soft glow of the latest LED technology. With an eye to classical myth and a strong personality, Psyche celebrates the passion of beauty through the centuries. Les First: Light of the Gods A luminous pantheon reinventing myth in a flow of energy and imagination: light sculptures with a strong and versatile personality, a perfect fit for both classical or Minimalist settings, born to satisfy the senses and pay tribute to a timeless beauty.

The idea: Les First – Top Quality Italian Craftsmanship All Les First lamps are inspired by the mythological subjects in the frescoes that Renaissance artist Giulio Romano painted in the halls of Palazzo Te for the Gonzaga lords of Mantua. Distinctive design, blending traditional handmade ceramic from potteries of Venetian tradition with specially created, innovative technology, makes the lamps unique in the field of lighting fixtures. Les First’s top quality table-lamps are crafted in the regions of Lombardy and Veneto. Carefully handpicked artisan workshops Craft to specification the various components, that are then assembled in the Les First atelier in Mantova. The finest ceramics and skilled handcraft guarantee top quality together with the uniqueness of artisanal production. 2. Technological Innovation: The Dimmable Touch Lamp The ceramic sculpture, core of the artistic composition, is enhanced by the innovative lighting cylinder of clear Plexiglas. The micro-incisions, laser-engraved by CNC machines on the cylinder’s surface, ensure an even distribution of light across the whole pane. The light is switched and adjusted through an innovative dedicated software, especially created by a technical laboratory in Verona. A microprocessor manages and processes the proximity effect of the user’s hand to control and adjust the light. The system, developed especially for Les First, turns the ceramic sculpture into a dimmable Touch Lamp, whose soft glow can be switched on and off and adjusted simply by touching the lamp’s ceramic base, without a conventional on-off switch. 3. Technical Features: Weight: 8 kg / 17,64 lb Power consumption: 7 W (LED) LIGHT SOURCE AVAILABLE: 1 Led Strip x 7W Lumen: 369 Colour temperature: 3000 K Color Rendering Index (CRI): 90 LED panel lifespan: 50 000 hours Dimmer: Included Voltage: 24Vdc Environment: Indoor Protection Rating: IP 20 Electric insulation class: 3^ Energetic class: A+ Power Supply Technical Data Supply included: Yes Supply voltage: input 100-240V, 50-60HZ; Output 24Vdc Cord Lenght: 100 cm / 39,37 in Indoor use only. Psyche touch lamp is CE certified. 4. Artisanal Production Les First’s ceramic lamps are artisanal pieces, and only a few components are made industrially. Due to the complex and many-staged hand production, each lamp can show individual characters, features unique to the hand-crafting process that must not be viewed as faults. A slight unevenness in the ceramic surface can result from shrinkage during the firing stage, or from characteristic features of the antique molds. Colors may show variations, with a very individual and pleasing effect, due to the firing process of the crystalline glaze, such as the typical and prized “crackle”. In the case of gold and silver metallic coating, slight irregular cracks can occur on the surface, as the precious metals and clay undergo different dilations during the various firing and cooling stages. Pieces from the same batch can show a slightly different appearance. Such varying reactions to the manufacturing process cannot be entirely predicted even by the most experienced potter, and are part of the unique and enduring charm of hand-crafted ceramic. Each lamp is carefully vetted against out exacting quality standards. Les First holds to the highest quality standards for manual production, as established through centuries of experience in the potteries of Vicenza. The element of imperfection, typical of all hand-made products, is not a fault – but rather the mark of Italy’s ancient handcraft tradition. 5.
