Sculptured Chrome Table Lamp By Francois Monnet for Uginox, 1970s France

This sculptural chrome table lamp by François Monnet for Uginox, designed in 1970s France, is a striking example of radical modernist lighting. Entirely made of steel, the lamp is constructed from curved and folded blades that elegantly intersect to form a four-leaf clover silhouette, giving it a powerful architectural presence and a sense of movement even when unlit. The polished chrome surfaces reflect the surrounding space while the warm glow from within creates a dramatic contrast, emphasizing the sculptural form. Resting on steel feet and finished with an upper decorative knob in brushed steel, this piece perfectly embodies Monnet’s mastery of industrial materials transformed into objects of incomparable beauty.
