Rare “Bonsai” table lamp designed by Josep Llusca for Blauet in Barcelona in the 1990s. This iconic Spanish mid century modern piece features an asymmetrical sculpted cedar wood base with a flowing, organic silhouette reminiscent of a bonsai tree trunk, elegant and architectural.
The original parchment lampshade is finished with hand-sewn brown thread forming a distinctive criss-cross pattern and decorative stitched edging, adding handcrafted character and subtle visual texture. When lit, the shade diffuses a warm, ambient glow.
A highly collectible design that blends natural materials with modern form, this Bonsai lamp is a standout statement piece for lovers of vintage European design, Spanish modernism, and sculptural lighting.
