    More information

    M. Font Art Deco Lamp — This M. Font Art Deco lamp is an exceptional French Art Deco table lamp produced between 1925 and 1935, signed by the sculptor “M. Font” on both silvered-metal figures flanking the central axis. The work distills the decorative spirit of Art Deco: stylized geometry, formal symmetry, luxurious materials, and a sculptural approach to functional design.

    The composition features two stylized tropical fish in silvered metal (likely spelter/zamac), each signed in relief “M. Font,” framing a central frosted-glass globe. The ensemble rests on a plinth of black Portoro marble—celebrated for its rich golden veining and widely favored in high-end interiors of the period.

    The double signature points to a limited production or one executed under the artist’s direct supervision, increasing the piece’s desirability among collectors. Lamps of this calibre were frequently supplied to galleries and interior decorators in interwar Paris and remain sought after today for their quality of materials and sculptural presence. As a M. Font Art Deco lamp, it offers both decorative impact and historical significance.

    Condition – Very good overall, with light, honest signs of age:

    • Silvered metal retains most of its original finish with natural patina and light surface wear on raised areas—authentic and not distracting.

    • Portoro marble well preserved; small chip to one rear corner of the base, barely visible from the front (see photos).

    • Frosted-glass globe intact, no cracks.

    • Electrical system updated with modern wiring; lamp in full working order.

    Materials: Portoro marble; silvered metal; frosted glass; modern wiring
    Signed: Yes — both fish signed in relief “M. Font”
