PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

This floor lamp features a slender shaft in black lacquered metal, animated at its centre with a moulded brass baluster that punctuates the silhouette with a gilt accent. The tripod base, with slender arched legs terminating in small pads, gives the whole great graphic lightness. The black tapered shade with a gilt interior reflects a warm light.

This purity in black metal enhanced with a brass baluster is characteristic of French lighting of the 1950s, in the spirit of the productions of Maison Lunel, which declined the tripod floor lamp with a thoroughly Parisian elegance.

Condition report: Good general condition. Even black lacquer, brass baluster with a soft patina; shade remade to measure. Electricity checked by an electrician. A sober and chic floor lamp, to be placed beside a reading armchair or in a corner of a sitting room.
