Iconic Pierre Cardin Lucite Table Lamp with Brass Mounts, 1970s

A striking example of 1970s design at the intersection of glamour and early postmodernism, this table lamp reflects the distinctive aesthetic associated with Pierre Cardin. The composition is defined by a substantial panel of clear Lucite, secured to a central vertical brass support with exposed polished brass fittings, emphasizing both structure and material contrast.
The Lucite element is subtly etched in the lower corner with Cardin’s interlocking logo, functioning as a discreet signature and integral graphic detail. The lamp is raised on a solid rectangular brass base, lending weight and balance to the otherwise transparent form.
Produced through the collaboration between the Parisian house of Pierre Cardin and the American Laurel Lamp Company, the piece exemplifies the era’s fascination with modern materials and luxurious finishes. The interplay of clear acrylic and warm brass creates a refined, luminous presence, equally suited to interiors ranging from Hollywood Regency to contemporary settings.
