This sculptural table lamp exemplifies the architectural approach to form that characterized much of French decorative design during the 1970s. Constructed from stacked solid teak blocks, the base is composed as a carefully balanced arrangement of geometric volumes, creating a composition that is both rigorous and playful.

The stepped structure emphasizes the natural beauty of the teak, with the rich grain and tonal variation of the wood adding warmth to the otherwise disciplined geometry. Brass fittings provide a subtle contrast to the organic material, while introducing a refined decorative element characteristic of the period.

More than a functional lighting object, the lamp possesses a distinctly sculptural quality. The interplay of horizontal and vertical forms creates a dynamic silhouette that changes depending on the viewing angle, reflecting the influence of architectural and Constructivist principles on French interior design of the era.

The square silk shade complements the geometry of the base and diffuses the light softly, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Together, the materials and proportions achieve a balance between decorative presence and modernist restraint.

Highly representative of the experimental spirit of 1970s French constructivism, this lamp serves equally well as functional lighting and as a sculptural accent within an interior.

This lamp has a bajonet fitting (B15).
