This stunning pair of Art Deco Machine Age table lamps, produced in America circa 1935, exemplifies the bold fusion of modern industrial aesthetics with the artistic refinement characteristic of the era. Crafted in chrome, frosted glass, and Bakelite, these lamps showcase a daring yet elegant dual armed U shaped form paired with rich geometric and color contrasts.

The lamps feature a polished chrome body with delicately abstracted cubist form elements, embodying the streamlined curves and dynamic forms associated with Art Deco design. The chrome construction emphasizes the Machine Age's fascination with innovative materials and industrial utility, while lending a bright and reflective quality.

The frosted glass circles soften the lighting, diffusing an inviting glow and adding a touch of timeless sophistication. Complementing the metallic elements, the lamps incorporate striking black and orange Bakelite detailing—an iconic material of the period—offering bold pops of color and further reinforcing the geometric and modernist aesthetic.

Designed to serve as practical lighting while standing as sculptural objects, these table lamps are perfect for display on consoles, desks, side tables, or nightstands. Their unique combination of materials, forms, and colors mark them as collectible examples of both Art Deco and Machine Age design. Ideal for vintage enthusiasts or anyone seeking to enrich their space with functional art pieces, this pair is a rare find that captures the elegance and innovation of the early 20th century. Newly rewired to American Standards, these lamps accommodate two candelabra base bulbs each, achieving up to 120 watts of light. In Excellent Vintage Condition.
