Golden Sails Afloat: Pair of French Art Déco Galleon Ship Lamps, 1940s
This exceptional pair of Art Déco table lamps, crafted in the form of stylized galleon ships, showcases the elegance and craftsmanship of 1940s French design. Attributed to the renowned French metalworker Raymond Subes, these lamps feature a harmonious blend of gilt bronze and verdigris-accented bases, embodying both modernist and nautical aesthetics.
Each lamp's sail is executed in rich gilt bronze, evoking the grandeur of maritime motifs popular during the Art Déco period. The half-moon base, detailed with finely engraved patterns and subtle verdigris patina, adds an exquisite visual contrast. Topping the lamps are hand-stitched shades featuring vintage nautical map prints, enhancing their thematic allure and unique character.
