Willy Daro Dragon Septarian Geode Table Lamp – Monumental 1970s Sculptural Brass Design
A rare and commanding work by celebrated Belgian designer Willy Daro, this sculptural table lamp is a masterclass in 1970s European design—where natural grandeur meets modernist precision. Created circa 1970, the piece features a substantial geometric frame in polished brass, cradling a dramatic Dragon Septarian geode slab. One side of the stone is expertly polished to reveal its intricate crystalline structure, while the reverse remains raw and untouched, preserving its primal, geological essence.
The lamp retains its original shade, a richly textured composition in bronze and gold tones that amplifies the piece's luxurious presence. The interplay between the organic geode and the architectural brass frame creates a tension that is both elemental and refined—a hallmark of Daro's sculptural lighting oeuvre.
Though not signed, the materials, proportions, and execution unmistakably reflect Daro's distinctive aesthetic and his studio's commitment to bold, nature-infused design. Pieces of this scale and integrity are exceedingly rare, especially with original components intact.
This lamp is more than lighting—it's a legacy item, a museum worthy objet d'art of mid-century European luxury design.
This lamp is a collectible artifact, a statement of taste and connoisseurship. Ideal for a curated interior, gallery setting, or private collection, it offers investment-grade appeal for those who value the intersection of art, design, and natural history.
