Sphinx Table lamp metal beige / Steel & glass

With its linear design, the Sphinx table lamp dresses your room with its graphic presence. The simple form, both enigmatic and playful, irresistibly attracts attention and stimulates the imagination. This folded steel tube forming a loop evokes an industrial pipe. The opaline glass globe punctuates the silhouette, providing a soft, warm light. A style both full of fantasy yet refined. All things superfluous have been eliminated to keep only what is essential. The Sphinx lamp won’t go unnoticed, becoming a centrepiece in your decor. With its rudimentary curved shape, lost between a feeling of regression and technical distinction, the tube calls out with its power of interpretation. Sphinx rounds off the angles with dexterity, revealing graceful curves, reassuring shapes. Designer Axel Chay has succeeded in transforming a basic element (steel tube) into a sculptural, original and contemporary piece, while preserving the integrity of the original element. The Sphinx lamp is pure design pleasure, where the delirium of designing becomes real. French designer Axel Chay has a knack for developing a daring language of shapes and colours, borrowing here and there, especially from the 80s, like a Julio le Parc curve or the nostalgic silhouette of an Italian terrace on a summer’s evening, which explode into view. A well-intended slap for conventional design and predictable furniture. This high-quality sculptural piece is handcrafted in Marseille.
