Pair of Art Deco–style table lamps with sculptural palm‑wood bases and wide, conical shades. Each base is a vertical stack of dark, strongly grained wood blocks, interrupted by projecting horizontal bands that create a stepped, architectural profile. The wood has a deep brown tone with lighter streaks that emphasize the natural texture and give the lamps a warm, organic presence beneath the more minimal, matte dark shades. Together, the bold geometric bases and simple cones evoke mid‑century French decorator pieces in the spirit of refined yet robust modernism.
