No. 7 - The Specimen
$620.00 CAD
The Form A study in mimicry. A hand-polished brass shell rests atop a rattan-wrapped stem, mimicking the form of a pearl nestled in the ocean floor. It is distinctively decorative—a piece of jewelry for the desk. The shade is not fixed; it is balanced, allowing light to escape from beneath the scalloped edge like a secret.
The Matter
- Shade: Polished Brass (Shell form).
- Stem: Rattan-wrapped steel.
- Base: Weighted Brass plate.
- Dimensions: 32cm H x 27cm Ø.
- Socket: E26 (Warm bulb mandatory).
The Mood This is a lamp for the "Study" or the "Dressing Table." The solid brass shade completely blocks upward light, forcing a warm, golden glow downwards onto the rattan stem and the table surface. It creates a private, theatrical pool of light—ideal for reading a letter or displaying a small treasure.
The Note
- Patina: The unlacquered rattan will darken slightly over time with touch, recording the life of the owner.
