Art Deco "Thorn" table lamp (1920s) 🦇 Available now!

Thorn and floral motif wrought iron table lamp with satin glass lampshade from the early Art Deco period, in France. The distinguished Deco low-relief geometric pattern of the cone-shaped glass lampshade is supported by three rhythmically placed leaves, contrasting beautifully with the organic design from the lamp’s body.
In francophone late Art Nouveau style, the lamp's base is adorned with delicately sculpted leaves and flowers, while its stems transition fluidly into the body of the lamp displaying punctuated thorns. The intricate juxtaposition of the organic structure and the geometric motifs of lampshade render this design a notable transition piece.

Franz von Stuck, "The Evening Star" [1911] 💫 Available now!

“Exploring spiritual and psychological extremes, including terror, evil, virtue, and hedonistic pleasure, Stuck's art epitomizes the preoccupation with the psyche, sexuality, and morality in European intellectual life at the turn of the century. Stylistically, Stuck combined a traditional approach to the figure with an expressive manipulation of color, space, and form that is eminently modern.” — Alison Hokanson, 2017
