About the Item

After Piet Mondrian Wood Lamp Art Incredible! 1940 Hand-Carved, Painted & Crafted After Composition With Red Yellow and Blue Amazing Art Design! 4 Different Compositions from each viewing angle! Fresh from an incredible estate near Taliesin West, comes this Marvelous Architectural Art Lamp Featuring A Composition with Red, Yellow and Blue after Piet Mondrian! Designed clearly as a tribute to Neoplasticism of Mondrian and the Dutch De Stijl movement. this work of art transforms a lamp into four unique and different compositions with Red, Yellow and Blue. Its sheer genius in both design and execution. Mondrian, created a series of rhombus shaped canvases in 1925 and 1926. In 1927 Mondrian returned to the square, producing a group of paintings, centered around the idea of the dominant white or grey shape, with smaller squares and rectangles in primary colors placed along the edges of the composition. Mondrian’s paintings of this period are among the most iconic for their purism. This lamp follows the same Neoplastic principles and uses the square with a dominant white shape with primary colors along the edges of the composition. Lamp is in fine vintage condition. Original socket and wiring. New harp and black linen shade. Age appropriate wear to wood and enamel including chips and light fading. Likely vintage enamel restoration work. Significant tarnish to brass socket and metal trim. Displays absolutely superb! This is a one of a kind vintage art treasure. An architectural lamp that does quadruple duty as four different Neoplastic, De Stijl compositions after Piet Mondrian! From every angle a visual delight! A Magnificent work of "Illuminating Art" for your NY penthouse, Palm Springs atomic Ranch or West Palm Beach estate!

Rare Rembrandt Lamp! Iconic Mid Century Modern "Twilight Zone" Lamp MCM 1950s

Rare Rembrandt Lamp! Iconic Mid Century Modern "Twilight Zone" Lamp MCM 1950s

By Rembrandt Lamp Company

Located in Peoria, AZ

RARE MARVELOUS MODERNISM! REMBRANDT MCM LAMP! "Twilight Zone" " "Third From The Sun" HISTORIC MID CENTURY LIGHTING! ATOMIC AWESOME! DIMENSIONS: HEIGHT: 38.5" SHADE: 19" MILK GLASS DIFFUSER FABRIC SHADE WITH TEXTURED GOLD FOIL LINING CIRCA 1953 WOW! THIS IS IT! The famous wildly modern Rembrandt lamp featured in the 1960 Twilight Zone episode "Third From The Sun". In this the 14th episode of Rod Serling's Sci-Fi masterpiece two scientists plan to escape their doomed world which is about to have a nuclear war. This modernist Rembrandt lamp was used in the lead character's home, right next to some modern art, to help present an otherworldly & futuristic decor. The viewers don't know that this world is not Earth until the end of the show, but the futuristic decor, unusual camera angles and unusual vehicle sounds were subtle hints! A timeless part of television history and a coup for Rembrandt lamp designers to be chosen to depict the most advanced lamp design! This lamp was expensive new and production was never as high as their lesser quality competition. The result is that now these lamps are becoming impossible finds. The few owners privileged enough to own one never let them go. They are far too cool! Now that brash mid century optimism and outrageousness makes them even more wonderful than when they were new! This one is in very fine vintage condition with all the expected patina and minor blemishes time takes on metal, glass, wood and enamel. The fabric lamp shade with its gold foil textured lining is lost technology that would be impossible to reproduce today at any price and is also in very fine vintage condition. This showpiece lamp features a giant "Mogul" socket which was used in most floor lamps and large table lamps prior to 1955, One will be provided with the lamp, and they are still available. It truly is a modern miracle to find this tall 39" monumental lamp! Displays beautifully! If you've ever wanted to have otherworldly decor in your interiors - this is your opportunity! If you haven't seen the episode, it is a must watch...
