Pair of Art Deco Machine Age Chrome and Glass Rod Torchieres

Offered by: High Style Deco

Description
This striking pair of Art Deco Machine Age torchieres, crafted in France circa 1940, exemplifies the streamlined elegance and industrial influence characteristic of the Machine Age within the Art Deco movement. With their chrome construction and bold use of glass rods, these torchieres beautifully combine functionality with modernist aesthetics. The design features tall, commanding silhouettes with a strong vertical emphasis that is quintessential to the era's style. Constructed from chrome-plated metal, the torchieres boast a sleek and reflective finish, reinforcing their industrial yet sophisticated appeal. The central body of the lamps features glass rods that fill and conceal the center while creating a refined and dazzling material quality.

These torchieres perfectly capture the Machine Age's fascination with precision, symmetry, and industrial materials while retaining the elegant flourishes of Art Deco design. The combination of minimalist chrome and luxurious glass rods epitomizes the harmony between utilitarian design and artistic opulence. Their bold verticality lends them a commanding presence, making them ideal focal points in a variety of interior spaces. Versatile and timeless, they pair beautifully with an array of design styles, from Art Deco and Mid-Century Modern to contemporary minimalist spaces. Whether placed in a living room, entrance hall, or dining area, they infuse any environment with understated glamour. Newly rewired to American Standards, these torchieres accommodate one edison base bulb achieving up to 100 watts of light. In Excellent Vintage Condition.
