About the Item
This rare Portuguese table lamp from the 1940s is a striking example of Art Deco design, blending geometric rigor with sculptural elegance. Its triangular pyramid structure, crafted in chromed brass, forms a bold architectural frame, while at its center hangs a luminous hand-blown amber opaline glass globe. The composition balances sharp linearity with organic roundness, creating a visually captivating object that is both functional and decorative.
The pyramid form, symbolizing stability and modernity, reflects the influence of architectural geometry within the Art Deco movement. The chromed brass surfaces catch and reflect light, while the opaline globe diffuses a warm, atmospheric glow, highlighting the lamp’s sculptural qualities. Its design is both minimalist and dramatic, embodying the transitional spirit of the 1940s, when Deco’s stylization merged with modernist clarity.
Produced in Portugal, this lamp is a rare testament to local craftsmanship of the period, where international styles were interpreted with distinct regional character. Today, it serves not only as a source of light but as a collectible piece of design history—perfect for Art Deco, modernist, or eclectic interiors. Its bold geometry and rich material contrasts make it a timeless centerpiece.
