Table Lamp in Eames Style

Four brass spheres, stacked as if the party started early.

This table lamp in Eames style was made in the United States in the mid 20th century in brass. Stacked-sphere lamps of this kind are commonly associated with the glossy Modernist taste of the period. Four round brass balls graduate in size from a wider base to a smaller top, joined into one column. A slim neck carries the socket, a small wire harp and a finial. The polished metal reflects the room in warm gold.

A sculpture that happens to light up. Pair it with a pale shade and a dark corner.
