The Angle sconce designed by Pierre Chareau is not just a lamp. It is a small architectural device that transforms a corner into a source of light, embodying Chareau’s belief that furniture and lighting should function as extensions of the space they inhabit. Characterized by its precise geometric form and softly diffused glow, the fixture integrates seamlessly into the architecture of a room rather than simply decorating it.
Crafted with a metal structure and a luminous alabaster panel, the sconce emits a warm, ambient light that highlights the natural translucency of the stone. The alabaster is available with either brown or white veining, each piece subtly unique and expressive of the material’s natural character. Because of the natural qualities of alabaster, hues and veining may vary from piece to piece.
“No house in France better reflects the magical promise of 20th-century architecture than the Maison de Verre,” wrote architecture critic Nicolai Ouroussoff in the New York Times about the groundbreaking project by Pierre Chareau. Arguably one of the most influential works of modern architecture, the « House of Glass » stands as the most innovative example of Chareau’s genius.
The visionary designer brought modernity into interior decoration by his pioneering use of wood, glass and metal. By the mid 1920s he had joined the prestigious Société des Artistes Décorateurs and, in 1929, he co-founded the “Union des Artistes Modernes”. With some of his like-minded peers – including Robert Mallet-Stevens and Jean-Michel Frank – he befriended the most sought-after artists of his time, Max Ernst, Joan Miró, Amedeo Modigliani, Louis Aragon, Paul Éluard and André Breton to name abut a few.
