Skull Bone Light Holder Palladium Enamel Crystals

About the Item

This Skull and Bone Light Holder by J Dauphin is a rare and collectible vintage object from 2008, expertly crafted in Paris. Plated in palladium, it features a sculptural skull-and-bone silhouette enriched with subtle luxury elements—light blue glitter enamel and sparkling rhinestone crystals that catch the light with elegance and edge. Though never used, the piece has softened slightly with age, exhibiting minor markings and a gentle loss of surface shine, which only enhance its vintage patina and timeless appeal. A true reflection of J Dauphin’s fusion of rock 'n' roll attitude with refined Parisian craftsmanship, this object exemplifies the label’s bold artistic language that transcends traditional categories. Founded in 2006 by Johanna Dauphin—whose design roots include Tod’s and Fendi—the brand is known for combining Swedish restraint, Roman drama, and French luxury, with all production carried out in the same ateliers that serve Hermès. Worn and collected by cultural icons like Keith Richards, Uma Thurman, Chloë Sevigny, Courtney Cox, Brandi Carlile, and Roxette, J Dauphin has graced top retailers such as Bergdorf Goodman, Le Bon Marché, and Matches. This rare light holder is both an art object and a design statement—ideal for collectors of avant-garde decorative pieces rooted in fashion history.
