Designed circa 1936 by Alberto Giacometti for interior designer Jean Michel Frank, this iconic Etoile bronze floor lamp exemplifies the legendary artist’s fluid relationship with the decorative arts. Here, Giacometti effortlessly combines form and function; the lamp’s thin central structure is embellished only by a modest six-pointed star. One of the most important sculptors of the 20th century, Alberto Giacometti (1901-1966) was a Swiss sculptor, painter, draftsman, and printmaker who lived and worked mainly in Paris.
