Description
This art deco table lamp sets a dancing figure in a bronze finish against a frosted disc, so the light falls behind her and frames her in a pale circle. Poised on one knee with her head thrown back, she holds a long scarf that sweeps over her head in a wide loop and flows into the folds of her gown, which pools on a square plinth. Darker shading in the folds picks out every crease of the fabric and the waves of her hair. The lamp stands 32.5cm tall, 27cm wide and 13cm deep, so it suits a sideboard or a bedside table.
Its shallow depth suits a narrow mantelpiece or a hall table. With the lamp off, she is a sculpture in her own right, a figure in mid movement that draws the eye across the room. Switched on, the disc becomes a soft halo behind her. It is a lamp for dry rooms indoors, such as a living room, bedroom, study or hallway. As a new home gift it brings a personal touch to a first sideboard, and it suits anyone who loves dance, the 1920s and 1930s or figurative pieces.
Behind the figure, a slim stem rises from the base to a brass-coloured lamp holder set behind the frosted disc. The black flex leaves the back of the base and has an on/off switch along its length, ending in a UK three-pin plug, so you can turn it on without reaching behind the lamp. To care for it, switch off, unplug and let the bulb cool, then dust with a soft dry cloth, working gently into the folds of the drapery. Set it with the figure facing the room and the back of the disc to the wall, beside a pair of candlesticks or a stack of art books, and her pose does the rest.
