A magnificent example of Regency-era Hollywood glamour, this palm tree table lamp was designed by Christian Techoueyres for Maison Jansen in the 1970s. This particular model, standing 65 cm tall, is distinguished by its hand-cut brass fronds and textured trunk, emerging from a square, rolled brass base reminiscent of a flowerpot.
Techoueyres' work for Jansen is renowned for his ability to transform industrial brass into an organic and sculptural work of art. Light reflects elegantly off the brass leaves, creating a warm and dramatic atmosphere. Its compact dimensions (65 x 55 x 55 cm) make it a versatile centerpiece, ideal for a sideboard, console table, or bedside table.
