This pair of sculptural lamps by Jacques Jarrige, titled Adam and Eve, embodies his poetic interpretation of the human form. Cast in bronze and finished with a black patina, each lamp represents a stylized figure—one evoking the feminine, the other the masculine—brought to life through Jarrige’s fluid, intuitive sculpting process.
The forms are abstract yet unmistakably corporeal, their contours suggestive of bodies in quiet dialogue. With their subtle asymmetries and organic presence, they convey a timeless sense of duality—strength and softness, balance and tension, unity and distinction.
The black patina on the bronze surface accentuates the sculptural lines with a warm, reflective glow, highlighting both the refinement of the material and the immediacy of the artist’s hand. As lighting objects, they offer illumination that is both literal and metaphorical—casting not just light, but presence.
Adam and Eve are more than a pair of lamps; they are companion sculptures that bring narrative, form, and radiance into the spaces they inhabit.
The bases in bronze are 13.25 inches high. The shade shown is 9" diameter at top, 11" bottom and 8.5" high on the slant
