Sculptural Mid-Century Modern Translucent Table Lamp Signed by Daum

Creator: Daum / Daum Nancy
Offered by: High Style Deco

Description
This stunning and sculptural Mid Century Modern table lamp was realized by the legendary atelier of Daum, circa 1960, in the town of Nancy, France. The piece features an abstracted, amorphic conical form with a wealth of rivulets and rounded surfaces- resembling a glacial pinnacle- in handblown translucent crystal. Additionally, the lamp offers a chrome harp, a spherical finial and fittings in lustrous chrome. With its monochromatic palate and clean modernist lines, this lamp would be a winning addition to any style of interior from classic Mid Century Modern to contemporary. It has been newly rewired to American standards and comes fitted with a custom shade.Excellent vintage condition.

Daum is a crystal studio based in Nancy, France, founded in 1878 by Jean Daum (1825–1885). His sons, Auguste Daum (1853–1909) and Antonin Daum (1864–1931), oversaw its growth during the burgeoning Art Nouveau period at the beginning of the 20th century into the internationally celebrated brand that it remains today. Today, Daum is the only crystal manufacturer employing the pâte de verre process for art glass and crystal sculptures- a technique in which crushed glass is packed into a refractory mould and then fused in a kiln. All Daum pieces are still made by hand in the area surrounding Nancy, France.
