About the Item

A rare mid-century French wall light, composed with an elegant balance of patinated rope, brass, and copper, materials emblematic of the warm, handcrafted modernism that flourished in France after the 1950s. At its core runs a copper tube, meticulously wrapped in patinated rope whose natural fibers introduce a tactile softness and a quietly sculptural presence. The light is fitted with a porcelain socket accented by a brass element, a combination that reflects the era’s appreciation for durable, honest components rendered with understated refinement. A copper wall plate anchors the piece visually and structurally, its gentle patina echoing the rope’s earthy tones and enhancing the lamp’s harmonious material dialogue. Discreet yet richly atmospheric, this wall light stands as a rare example of French mid-century craftsmanship, where simple forms and natural materials were brought together to create objects of enduring warmth and character. (Available with US or EU standard plug)
