This blown-glass lamp base, by Claude Morin and dating from the 1970s, seduces with its soft, organic shapes. Its lightly smoked glass lends a sober elegance to the whole, while playing with light to create subtle reflections.
In the 70s, the art of glassmaking underwent a revival, driven by craftsmen who pushed back the limits of traditional glassblowing. Claude Morin was part of this dynamic, experimenting with transparency effects and refined hues, giving his pieces a timeless modernity. This lamp base is a perfect example of the balance between functionality and aesthetics typical of the design of this period.
