About the Item
Demonstrating the artist's mastery of bronze casting and layered, complex patinas, this rare bronze lamp base is a superb example of mid-century chinoiserie. A current Christie's decorative arts catalogue shows this bronze being used as a table base by Philip and Kelvin Laverne, although it is not clear whether they sculpted the bronze or simply made creative use of a bronze by another maker. Walnut was used for the lamp base and cap, and the patinas emphasize a mossy green hue with touches of spring green here and there.

"Exchange of Cultures, " High Style Art Deco Porcelain Lamp Base w/ Nudes by Robj
By ROBJ
Located in Philadelphia, PA
Illustrated in "Ceramiche Robj" and considered a major design by the renowned sculptor and ceramicist, this large piece was probably made in early 1930s to coincide with the debut of the Exposition Coloniale Internationale in Paris, which attracted almost 9 million visitors in less than a year. Rare and striking, this porcelain table lamp base depicts the globe surmounted by a tightly composed cluster of nude and semi-nude female figures representing cultures around the world. The women depicted here, all glazed in a gorgeous snow-white glaze highlighted in gold, are clearly representing a range of nations in Asia and Africa, probably coinciding with the nations that were part of the French Colonial Empire in the 1930s, before they won their freedom. Much like the one surviving building from the Exposition, now the Cité nationale de l'histoire de l'immigration, which features a massive bas relief mural...
