'L’Escargot' Table Lamp
The elegant, undulating ribs and crooked smile of the Malea Ringrens sea snail (a Galapagos native commonly known as the Great Grinning Tun) inspired the sexy black coils of L'Escargot Lamp—a hit of Helmut Newton to balance the Charles Darwin.
Standing 16” tall, its hand-dyed-leather-wrapped concrete base and steel column rises to a vintage matte-white sea-snail-shell shade with subtle flecks of black and brown, sourced from a private collector.
Fully adjustable on both axes, heavy-duty brass swivels at the top and bottom of the column allow for fine-tuning of the shade angle and overall silhouette. Unfinished brass hardware, a twisted black cloth-covered cord, 1940s-style plug, and black in-line switch complete the profile of this hard-working, hard-wearing, all-natural beauty.
