https://www.decorativecollective.com/dealers/barrois-antiquesThis table lamp features a cylindrical fluted shaft in gilt brass, flaring into a gadrooned ogee at its base, resting on a square base entirely sheathed in burgundy leather with saddle stitching. The drum shade, also sheathed in burgundy leather underlined with light topstitching along the edges, reveals a gilt interior that warms the light.
The combination of saddle-stitched leather and gilt brass is the signature of Jacques Adnet, a major figure of 1950s French decor, who raised leather sheathing to the rank of decorative art, notably in his collaborations with Hermès; this lamp belongs fully to his style.
Condition report: Good overall condition. Burgundy leather with a fine, even patina, intact topstitching, luminous gilt brass. Electricity checked by an electrician. A warm and elegant lamp, on a desk or a library table.
