Art Nouveau Brass Table Lamp, Europe 1900s

Offered by: H. Gallery

Description
At the turn of the 20th century, Art Nouveau emerged as a reaction against historic revival styles and the mass-production brought about by the Industrial Revolution. It favoured organic lines, natural motifs, and a sense of fluidity. Across Europe, designers sought to create objects that felt alive, drawing inspiration from plants, vines, and patterns found in nature. This table lamp sits firmly within that context, reflecting the period’s fascination with craftsmanship, ornament and atmosphere.

The lamp is defined by its tall, narrow silhouette, which gives it an elegant presence. The brass base honours both utility and beauty, featuring a raised sun design while also grounding the form. Rising from the base, the body leads the eye upward through its verticality, to the elongated white shade and woven lattice cover. This detailing stands put and gives the lamp its soft, organic character, while allowing light to shine through. The brass has developed a warm patina over time, adding depth and character while highlighting the lamp’s age and history. The design feels intentional, allowing the contours, texture, and the interplay between materials to shine. The result is a piece that feels both delicate and bold, a perfect representation of early 20th century European metalwork.

This lamp works beautifully as an accent piece, whether placed on a side table, desk, or console where its form can be fully appreciated. Beyond its function as a source of light, it serves as a sculptural object that adds a historical charm and atmosphere to a space.
