Woven Rattan Lamp in the Shape of an Oil Lamp. Attributed to Audoux-Minet.

The lamp thoughtfully adopts the shape of an old lantern: a tightly woven cylindrical base made of rattan, a mid cage with rattan uprights revealing the engraved glass housing the bulb, and a tall woven chimney flaring out into a star-shaped hat. The twisted natural-colored power cord completes the ensemble. The regular weaving and warmth of the material diffuse a soft, amber light. This work with rattan and rope is characteristic of the workshop of Adrien Audoux and Frida Minet, based in Golfe-Juan, whose luminaires and furniture made from natural fibers embody the spirit of the Côte d'Azur homes from the 1950s-1960s, now highly sought after by Riviera style enthusiasts. Condition report: Generally good condition. Healthy rattan with complete weaving, beautiful even blonde patina, interior glass in good condition. Electricity checked by an electrician. A charming accent lamp, ideal on a shelf, bedside table, or mantelpiece in a seaside spirit.
