Jean-Michel Frank, the visionary french interior decorator renowned for his luxurious yet minimalist designs, collaborated with Argentina's premier design house, Comte S.A. Established in 1932 and reigning through the 1960s, Comte S.A. was at the forefront of crafting and importing high-quality furniture and decorative objects.
Their partnership birthed these striking table lamps circa 1938. Crafted from forged iron, these lamps boast a unique design: thick metal sheets expertly melded to form a hollow structure, bearing the subtle patina of time that only adds to their antique allure. The lamps' necks cradle sockets for bulbs, seamlessly integrated into the sleek lines of their design. Standing at 2.5 inches wide, 9 inches long, and 15.5 inches tall, they exude the perfect blend of Frank's minimalist aesthetic and Comte S.A.'s commitment to impeccable craftsmanship.
These lamps transcend mere illumination; they are timeless pieces of functional art that elevate any interior space with their understated elegance and enduring appeal.
The bodies of the pieces exhibit visible marks of use and the passage of time, as evidenced in the images.
