Nautilus Study Table Lamp in Cast Bronze w/ Touch Dimmer by Christopher Kreiling

About the Item

The NAUTILUS lamp is inspired by midcentury Italian design. It is cast bronze and weighs up to 28 pounds. The outer shell has a blackened patina and the face is high polished to a mirrored finish. The NAUTILUS illuminates by a three-way touch sensor anywhere on the body. The face, only being waxed, will take on the fingerprints of its owner. Time is noted by its markings and continually changing patina. A deep brown fabric covered cord is at the back bottom. A 60W medium base bulb is recommended.   The NAUTILUS works well in pairs as bed side table lamps, on dining room consoles, as well as multiples on a bar top. The nautilus Lamp was featured on the cover and three pages of Ellen Degeneres's 'Home' book. Made in Los Angeles.

  • Minerva Touch Lamp, White
    By Massimo Marcomini
    Located in Mantova, MN
    This elegant table lamp brings together innovation and Classical myth for a unique lighting experience. The lamp’s body is crafted from high-quality ceramic in the Venetian tradition, entirely hand-finished. Its bold personality and distinctive flair make this lamp the perfect match for any decorative style in the most prestigious mansions. A bust of the Roman goddess Minerva sits atop the classic column-shaped pedestal. The innovative touch technology allows to switch and adjust the light with a delicate brush of the hand on the ceramic pedestal. The light source is a 7W LED strip with 3000K lumen and 100-240V voltage. Les First’s very first desktop light sculpture, first in the Light of the Gods collection, Minerva matches traditional ceramic with modern LED light technology, and the art of Giulio Romano, author of the Hall of the Giants in the Palazzo Te of Mantova. A celebration of the ancient goddess of knowledge, arts and light, it aims to amaze, to embody a new style, to fuse history and innovation into a new concept of energy as a flow. Classic elegance, color and high-tech combine into a sophisticated lamp that switches on and off with a touch, thanks to a dedicated software. Les First: Light of the Gods A luminous pantheon reinventing myth in a flow of energy and imagination: light sculptures with a strong and versatile personality, a perfect fit for both classical or minimalist settings, born to satisfy the senses and pay tribute to a timeless beauty.

    By Massimo Marcomini
    Located in Mantova, MN
    Inspired by the Classical urns from the frescoes in the Hall of Cupid and Psyche in Mantova’s Palazzo Te, this table lamp will Stand out in any kind of décor, with its Fine ceramic and timelessly elegant shape. The innovative touch technology is activated with the lightest touch on the pedestal: a simple gesture lets you switch and adjust the light in a unique tactile experience. The light source is a 7W LED strip with 3000K, 369 Lumen and 100-240V voltage. The maiden with the lamp, the beautiful mortal turned by love into the goddess of souls – Psyche lends her name to a sophisticated play of art, myth and design. The light sculpture Psyche draws from the style of Renaissance artist Giulio Romano, revisiting the ancient vase from his joyful, sensual Cupid and Psyche frescoes - and bathing it in the soft glow of the latest LED technology. With an eye to classical myth and a strong personality, Psyche celebrates the passion of beauty through the centuries. Les First: Light of the Gods A luminous pantheon reinventing myth in a flow of energy and imagination: light sculptures with a strong and versatile personality, a perfect fit for both classical or Minimalist settings, born to satisfy the senses and pay tribute to a timeless beauty. The Lamps 1. The IDEA: Les First – Top Quality Italian Craftsmanship 2. Technological Innovation: The Dimmable Touch Lamp Technical Information 3. Technical Features 4. Artisanal Production 5. Assembling 6. Packaging and Shipping 7. Maintenance 1. The idea: Les First – Top Quality Italian Craftsmanship All Les First lamps are inspired by the mythological subjects in the frescoes that Renaissance artist Giulio Romano painted in the halls of Palazzo Te for the Gonzaga lords of Mantua. Distinctive design, blending traditional handmade ceramic from potteries of Venetian tradition with specially created, innovative technology, makes the lamps unique in the field of lighting fixtures. Les First’s top quality table-lamps are crafted in the regions of Lombardy and Veneto. Carefully handpicked artisan workshops Craft to specification the various components, that are then assembled in the Les First atelier in Mantova. The finest ceramics and skilled handcraft guarantee top quality together with the uniqueness of artisanal production. 2. Technological Innovation: The Dimmable Touch Lamp The ceramic sculpture, core of the artistic composition, is enhanced by the innovative lighting cylinder of clear Plexiglas. The micro-incisions, laser-engraved by CNC machines on the cylinder’s surface, ensure an even distribution of light across the whole pane. The light is switched and adjusted through an innovative dedicated software, especially created by a technical laboratory in Verona. A microprocessor manages and processes the proximity effect of the user’s hand to control and adjust the light. The system, developed especially for Les First, turns the ceramic sculpture into a dimmable Touch Lamp, whose soft glow can be switched on and off and adjusted simply by touching the lamp’s ceramic base, without a conventional on-off switch. 3. Technical Features: Weight: 8 kg / 17,64 lb Power consumption: 7 W (LED) Light source available: 1 Led Strip x 7W Lumen: 369 Color temperature: 3000 K Color Rendering Index (CRI): 90 LED panel lifespan: 50 000 hours Dimmer: Included Voltage: 24Vdc Environment: Indoor Protection Rating: IP 20 Electric insulation class: 3^ Energetic class: A+ Power Supply Technical Data Supply included: Yes Supply voltage: input 100-240V, 50-60HZ; Output 24Vdc Cord Lenght: 100 cm / 39,37 in Indoor use only. Psyche touch lamp is CE certified. 4. Artisanal Production Les First’s ceramic lamps are artisanal pieces, and only a few components are made industrially. Due to the complex and many-staged hand production, each lamp can show individual characters, features unique to the hand-crafting process that must not be viewed as faults. A slight unevenness in the ceramic surface can result from shrinkage during the firing stage, or from characteristic features of the antique molds. Colors may show variations, with a very individual and pleasing effect, due to the firing process of the crystalline glaze, such as the typical and prized “crackle”. In the case of gold and silver metallic coating, slight irregular cracks can occur on the surface, as the precious metals and clay undergo different dilations during the various firing and cooling stages. Pieces from the same batch can show a slightly different appearance. Such varying reactions to the manufacturing process cannot be entirely predicted even by the most experienced potter, and are part of the unique and enduring charm of hand-crafted ceramic. Each lamp is carefully vetted against out exacting quality standards. Les First holds to the highest quality standards for manual production, as established through centuries of experience in the potteries of Vicenza. The element of imperfection, typical of all hand-made products, is not a fault – but rather the mark of Italy’s ancient handcraft tradition. 5. Assembling Assembling a Les First lamp from its hand-crafted components requires extremely skilled work, and it is never outsourced: the owner personally assembles each piece with the help of his assistants, making sure that the final result conforms to the chosen quality standard. 6. Packaging and Shipping All Les First products are carefully hand-packages, with materials specially designed to ensure the stability and protection of the lamps. The crates are sized to accommodate the lamps and the protective layers of expanded polyethylene and/or high-Expansion foam that ensure the lamps’ protection if correctly handled. These inner layers can vary, according to specific needs. The weight of the packaging must be added to that of the lamp itself. Psyche lamp...
