Atelier Michel Armand Sculptural 'Morille' Table Lamp

Atelier Michel Armand, 'Morille' table lamp, metal, Canada, 1970s

This table lamp, crafted by Atelier Michel Armand, displays an abstract and striking form reminiscent of a blooming flower. With an oval, intricately textured shade composed of overlapping petal-like shapes, it stands atop a smooth, curved base that resembles a stem. The polished finish enhances the sophisticated design. When illuminated, the light diffuses through the openings in the shade, casting a warm, golden glow and creating captivating reflections and patterns on the surface. This results in a shimmering and radiant visual effect that elevates its artistic elegance.

Founded in 1978, the Atelier Michel Armand was a small-scale establishment, the company had a staff count of no more than seven employees. The individuals at the helm were Robert Martin and Michel Dumas, and it is likely that one or both of them functioned as the designer(s). The atelier's primary focus was the production of limited edition, high-quality lighting fixtures, with only a few models made. The lamps were often crafted from bronze and took on various forms, such as a flower, hive, or flame, to name a few. The company ceased its operations in 1986.
