Floor-standing lamp MULETAS

The Muletas Lamp explores Dalí’s obsession with the uncanny, surprising and novel. Drawn by Dalí for Jean Michel Frank, Oscar Tusquets and Robert Descharnes brought the design to life. It branches upwards with a set of linking crutches bound like bones. Available in pale varnished lime wood or bleached, it has a powerful presence and illuminates behind the folds of its draped beige linen shade. Dalí was obsessed with the crutch, and it has frequently appeared in his paintings such as The Dream (1937), and The Burning Giraffe (1937). He found it to be "the significance of life and death...a support for inadequacy." Crutches rise up to the lamp, and the piece is an excellent example of Dalí’s art explored in a functional and contemporary environment. The lamp is also available in a limited-edition black patina. Materials and finishes Carved stand structure in bleached varnished lime-wood or limited edition option of black stained and varnished. Lampshade in beige linen or limited edition option of the same lining and covered in black transparent chiffon.
