The clear cast resin base contains a suspended arrangement of real dried flowers in vivid tones, creating a striking embedded botanical composition. A single opaque black resin panel applied to the rear intensifies contrast and enhances the illusion of depth, giving the lamp a diorama-like presence. The interplay between transparency and opacity heightens the sculptural clarity of the block form.

the resin base measures 26 cm high (10.2 in), 9 cm wide (3.5 in), and 7 cm deep (2.8 in). It is paired with a contemporary parchment shade of rounded rectangular form measuring 30 cm wide (11.8 in), 15 cm deep (5.9 in), and 15 cm high (5.9 in). The base is in very good vintage condition with minimal visible wear. The shade is a new replacement. The lamp retains its original wiring; pat or ul certification is advised prior to installation. A sculptural floral resin lamp that reflects the playful modernism and material experimentation of 1960s french design
