Jean-Louis Domecq for Jieldé - 5-armed industrial floor
This wonderful lamp, which has been restored to perfection, was designed by the French engineer Jean-Louis Domecq, commissioned by Jieldé. It was mainly used in factories as a work light. The unique feature of this lamp is the pivot point. Typically, a loose wire is used in these pivoting lights, which causes friction and as a result frequent breakage at the hinge points. The French engineer devised a secure, unique and patented alternative in in which copper plates are placed between the hinge points. These rings conduct the electricity, so wire damage will not occur. This beautiful and rare five-armed vintage lamp by Jieldé is an original piece from in wonderful brushed aluminium, which will fit right in in any interior. The heavy base creates perfect balance in any position. This base was fully customised and its weight increased, stabilising it in each position The maximum height of the lamp is 240 cm. These five-armed types are hardly ever on offer, because they are highly cherished by their owners. This lamp contains a dent free lamp shade and a perfectly round and unpleated handle, which is very exceptional. Read More
