This lamp was designed by Marcel Breuer in 1925 for the 'International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts' in Paris. Very nice Art Deco / Bauhaus design.
We cannot categorically say in which year this lamp was produced. Years after the exhibition these lamps were made under license. Given the unsophisticated condition, this is probably a slightly more recent example of this rare lamp. The lamp contains an insignia 'Marcel Breuer Design 1925 Exposition' engraved in the base and printed on the textile at the bottom of the base (see photos).
Period: Design '25s
Color: Brass
Dimensions: 53 cm (height) x 33.5 cm (width) x 15 cm (depth)
The lamp is in very good condition. A slight discoloration of the nickel-plated brass at the base shows some patina which may indicate that this lamp was produced in the 1950s under license.
