A striking, large carved oak table lamp (75 cm) attributed to Scandinavian sculptor

A striking, large carved oak table lamp (75 cm) attributed to a Scandinavian sculptor. A striking and rare sculptural table lamp attributed to renowned Scandinavian sculptor Peer Merløe, dating to the 1930s. This exceptional piece showcases the elegant, flowing aesthetic of Art Nouveau through masterful woodcarving. Standing an impressive 75cm tall, the sculptural oak base features two nude female figures carved in exquisite high relief, rising gracefully to support the bulb holder—a captivating fusion of fine art and functional design. Excellent vintage condition with some age-related warping to the oak at the base—entirely expected for a carved wooden piece of this age and scale. This natural characteristic does not affect the lamp's structural integrity, stability, or visual impact. Peer Merløe was a distinguished Scandinavian sculptor known for his masterful woodcarving and figurative work. His pieces from the 1930s represent a bridge between Art Nouveau's organic forms and emerging modernist sensibilities, making them highly sought after by collectors of Scandinavian decorative arts. This rare decorative statement piece is ideal for a console, sideboard, or reading corner, bringing the warmth of carved oak and classic Art Nouveau character to any sophisticated interior.
