DAUM FRERES
TABLE LAMP, c. 1930
Table lamp in acid-etched frosted white glass, featuring an ovoid base surmounted by a conical shade with a pointed apex and flared edges. The entire surface is adorned with a geometric pattern of long, radiating vertical striations, alternating between smooth and deeply frosted areas with a finely crackled texture. This decoration is punctuated by concentric circular motifs of varying sizes, their centres embellished with delicate radiating incisions. The contrast between the different glass textures creates a subtle interplay of relief and light, particularly striking when the lamp is illuminated. A hammered metal mount, adorned with three hammered spherical cabochons, connects the base to the shade.
