Jean Touret floor lamp for Marolles

Touret, Jean, Marolles, Floor Lamps, France, 1950s

A tall Jean Touret floor lamp for Artisans de Marolles. The lamp is made of an iron stem with a large wicker hood, standing on a heavy oak base. The hood has an adjustable round wicker element underneath, to change the direction of the light. The element can also function as a plateau, when placed at a lower position.

This piece was part of a large estate of Touret items, bought directly from the sons of the owners. The Atelier Marolles was commissioned to furnish the house in Blois, from a dinner table and sideboard to items like this one. The items were made under the direction of and designed by Jean Touret.

We have several other items by Touret available.
