"pharaoh" Table Lamp By Maison Deknudt

"Pharaoh" table lamp by Maison Deknudt
This gilded brass table lamp incorporates the image of a pharaoh into its design
It is largely inspired by the worldwide infatuation with ancient Egypt that swept Europe following the great exhibitions devoted to King Tutankhamun in the late 1960s and early 1970s
Set on a base of Black Mazy marble, the lamp features a black pagoda-style shade whose gold interior adds to its glamorous appearance
The contrast between the matte black exterior and the highly reflective gold lacquered interior surface of the shade acts as a visual reflector, projecting a warm, dramatic glow onto the gilded brass sculpture
The lamp features 3 light points; the block switch offers 3 functional positions, allowing users to switch on 1, 2 or all 3 light points simultaneously
The lamp is in very good vintage condition
The Pharaoh lamp measures 51 cm high, 26 cm wide and 28 cm deep
The lampshade measures 50 cm wide, 25 cm deep and 28 cm high
The base measures 14 cm by 14 cm and 4 cm high
Total height: 70 cm
Total weight: 7.2 kg
Mid-century design in Hollywood Regency style
