Price History
Description
French designer Gilles Derain (1944 – 2019) was the co-founder and artistic director of Lumen Center. His works, which have now become classics, reach record prices at auctions. At the end of the 1970s, Gilles Derain created the MCP floor lamp (''Merci Chareau Pierre'') in honour of the famous French architect Pierre Chareau, famous for creating the visionary Maison de Verre. This floor lamp went on to enjoy enormous commercial success, to the point of being included in the collection of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs de Montréal. Made of metal, the MCP floor lamp is characterised by the solidity of its lines and a timeless aesthetic with an industrial look. The shape is reminiscent of certain creations by architect Pierre Chareau, in particular the SN3 stool. This light is part of the LC collection by Lumen Center: reissues of iconic lamps from the 1920s to the 1980s, created by famous personalities of international design. Lumen Center: Made in Italy excellence... Quality of materials, attention to detail and craftsmanship are the hallmarks of the company's know-how. In the wake of a long tradition of craftsmanship, LUMEN CENTER continues to experiment with new solutions and cutting-edge technologies, bringing creations to life. The quintessence of design marries admirably with perfect functionality.
Our Stylist Says
I love this floor lamp for its sleek, minimalist design and its timeless white metal finish, which makes it versatile for a variety of interiors. It works particularly well in contemporary or industrial spaces, where its clean lines can add a sculptural quality without overwhelming the room. Practical styling tips include pairing it with modern furniture for a cohesive look or using it to mark a reading corner in a neutral lounge. Its slim profile makes it ideal for narrow spaces, and it can complement both a pared-back aesthetic or a more eclectic scheme when combined with textures and colours that add warmth. Overall, it's a functional statement piece that provides sophisticated lighting with a subtle design presence.
