The lamp is signed with the manufacturer's name on the side of the base.

The base is executed in metal with a warm bronze-toned finish, featuring an intricately worked surface with a distinctive beaded texture. The studded relief work forms flowing, sculptural panels that wrap around the body, creating a sense of movement and depth. The piece has a highly decorative presence combined with a rich tactile quality. The lamp rests on a circular solid wood foot, adding a subtle contrast in material.

The tapered shade is a custom design made in cream/off-white Métaphores fabric. The finely textured fabric provides a refined, neutral counterpoint while offering soft and even light diffusion.

The lamp is in good condition with minor wear consistent with age and use. Updated 220V wiring and a completely new shade.
