So Very hard to find. In Wonderful Vintage Condition. The back has two vintage pink bulbs in it, of course you can put any bulb in the socket.

Rare! 50’s Gio Ponti MID Century Brass Laurel Lamp! Atomic Modern Gold Vtg Retro
G I O P O N T I! L A U R E L L A M P. M I D C E N T U R Y M O D E R N. B R A S S & W H I T E. H E I G H T : 1 8 ” W I D T H 2 4 “. 1 9 5 8. The name Gio Ponti is legendary in the annals of mid century design history. Ponti was a Leonardo da Vinci of the design world and his lamps are a rarity in the furnishings marketplace. He did a few designs for Fontana Arte for the Hotel. Ponti lamps are so rare they end up fetching sizable sums when one does hit the marketplace. Here is one of Ponti’s rare designs for Laurel Lamp Co. Laurel contracted out with Italian designers Maurizio Tempestini & Gio Ponti to provide Italian designs to complement their inventory of Danish Modern styled lighting. Gio Ponti designed this for the Laurel Lamp company from his studio in Milan. “L’illuminazione elegante” was elegant illumination for high end lighting customers. Laurel Lamp had established the patronage of loyal buyers from Beverly Hills to Manhattan which loved the new “modern” European designers! This lamp features custom metal oversize metal cone shades with solid metal turn handles enameled in creamy white! These were custom heavy cast pieces and not used on any other Laurel Lamp outside this series of lamps which included a desk lamp, 3-light floor lamp and a tension pole lamp. All are extremely rare and highly coveted pieces. Few were made and even fewer have survived. In very fine condition. Brass still gleams like Midas touched it. Light age wear to the finish of the shades, arms and base. Works perfectly with a switch on the base and each shade switches off or on by turning the enameled handle. The style here is absolutely incredible and this lamp has functionality, grace and eye-popping mid century design. A spectacular addition to your NY penthouse, Beverly Hills estate or UK summer home!

Rare Brutalist Abstract Wall Art Sculpture! MID Century Modern Atomic Decor 1960
ABSTRACT BRUTALIST WALL SCULPTURE! BLEND OF POLYSTYRENE, COPPER, BRASS! INCREDIBLE TEXTURES & COLORS! DIMENSIONS: APPROXIMATELY 39″ x 13″ This is a highly coveted example of sixties brutalist art! Here is a work that combines a very rare blend of polystyrene injection molded with copper and brass accents. The first mold casts the incredible shapes and textures and then it is cast again – this time in a mold which applies some copper and brass to the finishes of many of the sculpted forms! The result is a completely unique look that captured the appearance of direct metal work, but with a greater level of control to turn out exactly the appearance desired! We see shades of blue, green, copper/red and gold that all pop and compete with the eye for attention! This type of piece couldn’t easily be produced today, or back then, because it required expensive injection molding equipment and then the devotion of workers handcrafting the finished product with metal and polychroming. It’s in a class of it’s own and that’s why it is revered and coveted by knowledgeable mid century art collectors! It bridges the handcrafting world with the coming world of machine-made. An iconic example of mid century art & design! This is the finest piece of this type we have encountered! The visual, textural appeal of this piece is sensational! This would make a wonderful addition to your NY penthouse, Palm Springs atomic ranch or UK summer home! A Brutalist Masterpiece For Your Brilliant Interiors!
