From the right to the left:
- An Art Deco alabaster 'Boule' lamp, ca. 1920-1930, France. The 'Boule' (ball) silhouette is a hallmark of the 1920s minimalist aesthetic. White alabaster and brass mount.
- An Art Deco amethyst table lamp, ca. 1920-1930, France. Reflecting the early 20th-C. fascination with mineralogy and 'modern cabinets of curiosities'. Amethyst rock and brass mount.
- An Art Deco spherical table lamp, ca. 1920-1930, France. This piece exemplifies the refined minimalism of the late Art Deco movement, often referred to as the 'style Paquebot'. Rosewood (palisander) and brass mount.
- A mid-century sculptural table lamp, ca. 1950-1960, France. France was the epicentre of a luxury design movement that specialized in 'high-glam' materials like exotic skins and brass. Genuine python skin over a solid wooden core, brass, red bakelite (feet).
- A modernist table lamp, ca. 1930-1940, France. This cubistic style table lamp base exemplifies the era's shift toward structural minimalism and the use of exotic, organic materials. Parchment (goatskin/vellum) over a solid wooden core and brass mount.
- A 'Moon Rock' table lamp by André Cazenave for Atelier A, ca. 1969–1970, France. Conceived during the Apollo 11 moon landing era, the piece evokes a fragment of a lunar landscape or a large river pebble brought into the domestic environment. Fibreglass shell, polyester resin, hand-applied marble and quartz powder, aluminum base.
