Description
Pair of French Midcentury Modern Gilt Wrought Iron Table Lamps in an Abstract Form Attributed to Jacques Quinet, France, circa 1960. An iconic pair of sculptural table lamps representing the eternal themes of modernism: abstraction and transparency. The works are composed of round rods assembled in intersecting circular and rectangular forms allowing the viewer to loose themself in the collage of open space and endless movement. Thus, they are works of art, music and poetry as much as they are functional objects. Sold as a Pair.

T. Thomas Gargiulo came from a dual background as a Ph.D. in Psychology with extensive training in Art History and Anthropology to form Thomas Gallery in downtown Manhattan in 1997 to balance intellectual with design pursuits. Since its inception the gallery has seen decorative arts as a vibrant representation of human culture of each age and as a portal to understanding it. P: 917.434.4032 E: thomasgalleryltd@gmail.com
