Table lamp attributed to Cedric Hartman, USA, 1970s

A refined table lamp attributed to Cedric Hartman, dating to the 1970s. Executed in polished nickel, the design is defined by its restrained geometry and balanced proportions, combining sculptural clarity with functional precision. The curved arm creates a continuous flowing line between the base and shade, giving the lamp a light and architectural presence. Both the base and shade are reduced to simple angular volumes, allowing the elegance of the silhouette and reflective quality of the nickel surface to remain central to the composition. The polished metal softly reflects its surroundings, enhancing the lamp’s understated material richness. The clean construction and minimal detailing are characteristic of Hartman’s timeless approach to lighting design, where technical refinement and visual calm exist in perfect balance. A sophisticated example of late modernist lighting design, distinguished by its quiet elegance and sculptural simplicity. Condition. Very good condition, with minimal signs of wear consistent with age. Details. Designer: Cedric Hartman (attr.) Origin: United States. Period: 1970s. Material: Polished nickel. Type: Table lamp.
