About the Item
Rare Italian Art Deco Corner Wall Lamp, 1930s
Attributed to Gio Ponti
Rare and highly evocative Italian Art Déco corner wall lamp dating to the 1930s, attributed to Gio Ponti on the basis of its distinctive forms, refined proportions, and overall stylistic language. This is an uncommon corner (angular) wall lamp, specifically designed to be installed in wall corners, where it functions as both a lighting fixture and an architectural focal point.
The structure is made of wood, conceived with a strong vertical development and enriched by characteristic Art Deco elements, including clear geometric rhythms, balanced symmetry, and an elegant interplay of volumes. The overall design reflects the sophisticated and architectural approach typical of high-level Italian decorative arts of the interwar period.
At the center of the composition stands a silvered wooden sculpture depicting a female allegorical figure symbolizing abundance, a recurring and meaningful theme in Art Deco iconography. The figure is elongated and harmonious, combining classical inspiration with a modern, stylized interpretation.
The sculpture is housed within a metal and plexiglass structure, which encloses the internal light source. This configuration creates a soft, theatrical illumination, enhancing the sculptural presence of the figure and emphasizing its three-dimensionality. Light and form are seamlessly integrated, making illumination an essential component of the overall artistic concept.
This lamp stands as a remarkable example of the fusion of art, design, and architecture, qualities that strongly support its attribution to the cultural and design milieu associated with Gio Ponti and progressive Italian design of the 1930s.
Ideal for Art Deco interiors, grand and scenic entryways, or refined architectural settings, it is a rare and impactful piece, capable of defining a space with elegance, character, and historical significance.
