Pierre Chareau belonged to a generation of French designers who saw no contradiction between craft and industry, and Double Sided Wall Lamp is a quiet demonstration of that belief. He paired the raw honesty of hand-worked metal and stone with materials chosen for how they behaved under light, treating each piece as a small architectural gesture rather than a decorative afterthought.
Built from two alabaster blocks mounted back to back and separated by a slender metal blade, the Double Sided wall lamp casts light in two directions at once, making it a favourite for corridors, entryways or any wall meant to be seen from both sides. Each block can take a different alabaster finish, veined white or veined brown, so no two installations glow quite alike.
“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.
