A sculptural 1980 table lamp by Philippe Jean, featuring a polished brass abstract bird mounted on a travertine pedestal base. Signed and numbered 178/300. The design centers on a highly polished brass abstract bird — a dynamic, upward-sweeping form poised between figuration and modernist sculpture. The silhouette is sharply resolved: a curved wing rising vertically, a pointed tail, and a forward thrust that creates a sense of lift and motion. The surface retains a mirror-like polish, emphasizing Jean’s refined interplay of light and contour. The sculpture is mounted on a square travertine pedestal base with visible natural aggregate, grounding the fluid brass form in architectural solidity. The contrast between warm polished metal and matte stone is characteristic of late 20th-century French decorative lighting, where sculptural presence was balanced with material restraint. Rare in signed and numbered condition, this lamp represents a highly collectible example of Philippe Jean’s limited production work — positioned at the intersection of functional lighting and gallery-scale decorative art.
