Table lamp made of gilded metal. The piece stands out for its figurative design that takes the form of a pineapple. This type of lamps reached a great popularity and were a distinctive sign of the firm Maison Jansen.
With a proven track record, Maison Jansen has decorated the residences of such important personalities as the Kennedys, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Coco Chanel and the March family. Founded in 1880 by Dutch designer Jean-Henri Jansen (1854-1928), its aesthetics were based on French furniture combined with aesthetic influences from around the world. His most sought-after pieces reflected the influence of antique designs from the Louis XIV, Louis XVI, Directory and Empire eras, as well as objects Jansen found during his travels to Japan and Turkey.
