'Sunflower lamp'

The sunflower closely follows the position of the sun so that the sun's energy can be optimally captured. This lamp by Pierre D'Avesn radiates the stored energy of the sunflower in all directions. The sun in the house, you could say. And that really makes you happy, it gives you energy. All 13 panels of 1.5 kg each are signed. A unique handmade construction forms one sphere from the satin-finished panels. This lamp was way ahead of its time in the 1930s.

Pierre D'Avesn, or Pierre Girre, created iconic designs in the art deco period. Initially for René Lalique, then for Daum and others.
