Original Lampe Gras No. 201
About the Item
Beautiful original condition. Wonderful patina.
I believe this lamp once had black paint, but has faded over time and now presents mostly as chrome. The result is a unique example of this lamp.
More information:
Table lamp designed by Bernard-Albin Gras. Manufactured by Gras, (France), circa 1930. Aluminium and steel.
In 1922 Bernard-Albin Gras designed a series of lamps for use in offices and in industrial environments. The Gras lamp, as it was subsequently called, was a simple, robust and yet very ergonomic design. There are neither screws nor welded joints. In 1927 the Ravel company purchased the patent and started production of the Gras lamps. Bernard-Albin Gras was one of the most innovative designer of the 20th century. The functional esthetic of his lamps and especially the de- sign of details such as those of the arms, stems, brackets and bases were truly original and far ahead of his time.
Le Corbusier became one of Bernard-Albin Gras's most enthusiastic supporters using the lamps in his own offices as well as employing them in numerous architectural projects all over the world. Others such as Robert Mallet-Stevens, Jacques Emile Ruhlmann and Eileen Gray followed this trend as well. Furthermore, such well-know artists as Sonia Delaunay and Georges Braque also used these lamps in their studios. For the first time in history, a lamp was equally popular in professional as well as in residential applications.
