About the Item

This exceptional floor lamp is a quintessential example of the French Modernist movement, designed by the renowned Charles Dudouyt (1885–1946) around 1940. It perfectly embodies the "Rustic Chic" aesthetic that Dudouyt championed—combining robust, traditional materials with a bold, geometric sculptural language. Design and Craftsmanship: The lamp is masterfully turned from solid oak, showcasing a warm, rich patina that highlights the natural beauty of the wood grain. Its most striking feature is the central stem, meticulously carved with Dudouyt’s signature diamond-point (pointe de diamant) motif. This textured, rhythmic carving creates a dynamic play of light and shadow, characteristic of high-end French production from the mid-20th century. The design is highly functional, featuring an integrated circular median tray at a convenient height, allowing the lamp to double as a side table (guéridon). The tiered, concentric base provides both stability and a sophisticated visual foundation. Condition and Restoration: The piece has been carefully preserved and professionally maintained: Electrical System: Fully restored and modernized for safety and convenience. Socket: Standard E27 brass socket, compatible with modern LED or decorative bulbs. Note: The lamp is sold without a shade, offering the buyer the freedom to customize the final look—whether with a classic paper shade or a contemporary textured fabric—to suit their specific interior. Dimensions: Total Height: 145 cm (approx. 57.1 inches) Base Diameter: 40 cm (approx. 15.7 inches) Tray Height: 63 cm (approx. 24.8 inches) Tray Diameter: 40 cm (approx. 15.7 inches) Shipping and Assembly: To ensure the safest possible transit and to optimize international shipping costs, this floor lamp will be shipped in two parts. It has been designed for simple reassembly upon arrival, ensuring the structural integrity of the wood is protected during the journey. Style: Mid-Century Modern / French Art Deco / Rustic Chic Materials: Solid Oak, Brass Origin: France, circa 1940
