Description
Vintage icon. Sammode Studio is reissuing a selection of lights designed in the 1950s by an iconic figure of post-war French design: Pierre Guariche (1926 – 1995). These strikingly modern lamps are pure of shape and very innovative for the post-war period. The original models of Pierre Guariche's lamps are now reaching new heights in auction rooms. Faithful to the original design and incorporating contemporary technologies, these lights, like all Sammode lights, display an exceptional quality of workmanship and French manufacture. Sammode Studio revisits the avant-garde spirit of one of the key lighting designers of the 1950s. Very prolific, in the 1950s, Pierre Guariche designed a multitude of lighting models corresponding to different uses. His lights offer great user comfort and optimal light quality. There’s no apparent light source, thus avoiding glare. Pierre Guariche didn’t study the possibility of expressing a style, but the best way of lighting a room. The technological ambition of Sammode Studio provides each part of the collection with advanced technical devices (swivel arm, cantilever, swivel or tilting jib, articulated spherical arm or counterweight sphere, etc. ). Designed in 1951, the G25 Potence wall light consists of a steel shade topped off with a reflector petal in perforated sheet steel that filters and reflects light for comfortable, warm lighting. Highly innovative for its time, this wall lamp has a long arm that pivots on the horizontal axis and slides to adjust the length. The G25 wall light lets you direct the light flow as you require with a simple movement of the hand. This wall light is a good alternative to a pendant, or even a floor lamp. The G25 wall lamp won’t go unnoticed in your home. It can be used over a dining table, or alternatively in an office or entrance with its volumes that fit easily into any space. This prestigious wall lamp offers diffuse lighting with a pleasant atmosphere.
Our Stylist Says
This wall light offers a sleek, vintage-inspired look with its white and gold finish, making it a versatile piece for both modern and retro interiors. I love how the adjustable arm provides practical focus lighting, ideal for reading nooks, bedside tables, or accenting features on a gallery wall. It works particularly well in mid-century inspired schemes or minimalist spaces where understated elegance is key. For styling, consider pairing it with warm wood tones or contrasting darker colours to make the metallic details pop. Its compact size and streamlined form also make it excellent for small spaces or areas where a discreet but stylish light source is needed.
