Large Joseph-André Motte J14 floor lamp for Disderot.
Originally designed in 1957, this sculptural floor lamp is a newly produced numbered edition with an authentication certificate made in France by Disderot with many of the same small-scale manufacturing techniques and craftsmanship as the original run. Executed in high-quality metal, marble, and double-layer opaline glass. Comes in the manufacturer's box with certificate of authenticity.
Born in 1925 in the Hautes-Alpes, Joseph-André Motte studied in Paris at the School of Applied Arts to Industry under the direction of Louis Sognot and Rene Gabriel, two of the great masters of French modernity. In 1952 he joined the studio Marcel Gascoin. It was there that he met Pierre Guariche and Michel Mortier with whom he developed a friendship and a professional affinity. Together they created the Atelier de Recherche Plastique (ARP) in 1954 to present French-manufactured practical, comfortable, modern furniture at a reasonable price.
