Item Description
Cajones is a standing table lamp taken from Dalí’s drawings for Jean Michel Frank in the 1930s. With this, Dalí introduced the small drawers at the base of the lamp, an idea he already used on other occasions for example, “Venus de Milo aux tiroirs” (Venus of Milo with drawers). In the 1990s a group of experts, led by Oscar Tusquets, set themselves the task of turning the furniture Dalí had drawn for Jean-Michel Frank into reality. The idea of connecting the electronic cord through one of the drawers is a contribution made by Architect Oscar Tusquets Blanca.
The lamp is made of sculptural limewood with the original sculptural linen shade. An engraved brass plaque is attached to the bottom of the lamp and reads "Lamapara Cajones Salvador Dali 1937 b.d. ediciones de diseno 130." The number 130 represents the 130th lamp produced by BD Barcelona.
The lamp was tested and in good working order. The lamp is in good vintage condition showing normal signs of wear such as dirt and minor scuffs to wood, and minor dirt spots on shade (see closeup photos).
