Art Deco Alabaster Lamp

Rare Art Deco lamp in carved alabaster, Nude Woman in a Shell, circa 1930. This superb Art Deco lamp, made around 1930, combines a finely carved alabaster female sculpture with a translucent alabaster shade in the shape of a stylized shell. The female figure, rendered in a classical and refined style, stands out in relief against the backlit shell, creating a beautifully soft play of light. The graceful pose and delicate modeling attest to the high-quality craftsmanship typical of the high-end decorative productions of the Art Deco period. The slightly veined alabaster diffuses a warm and even light, perfectly highlighting the sculpture. The entire piece rests on an alabaster base, ensuring both stability and elegance.
