Pair of Six-Sided Brass and Parchment-Covered Table Lamps, C. 1960

A sophisticated pair of six-sided table lamps dating to circa 1960, crafted in brass and parchment and executed in the refined manner of Samuel Marx. The elegant hexagonal form reflects the restrained glamour and architectural simplicity associated with Marx’s celebrated interiors, where luxurious materials and disciplined geometry were favored over ornamentation. Each lamp is clad in parchment panels framed by warm brass trim, creating a subtle interplay of texture, tone, and material refinement.

The faceted silhouette lends sculptural presence while maintaining an understated elegance, making the lamps equally suited to traditional, modern, or transitional interiors. When illuminated, the parchment softly diffuses light, producing a warm ambient glow that enhances the richness of the materials and the tailored quality of the design. Balancing sophistication with functionality, this handsome pair embodies the quiet luxury and timeless appeal of mid-century modern decorative arts.
