The Cylindre Wall Lamp is representative of the Art Deco aesthetic movement.

The Art Deco style owes its name to the International Exhibition of Decorative and Industrial Arts, held in Paris in 1925. This movement is essentially characterized by the simplification of forms and stylized motifs.

The lamp is available in a single finish gold or in two finishes, gold and nickel.

Adam D. Tihany is now one of the best-known architects in the world thanks to his many hotel and restaurant projects and is widely regarded as one of the world’s preeminent hospitality designers.

He was born in Transylvania in 1948, raised in Israel, and earned his architectural degree from the Politecnica in Milan. He apprenticed in Europe before moving to New York in 1976. In 1978, Tihany established Tihany Design, his own multidisciplinary New York studio that encompassed all aspects of design, from commercial and residential interiors to furniture, products, exhibitions, and graphics, and eventually began specializing in hospitality design.

Tihany was one of the pioneering designers to collaborate with celebrity chefs and has created multiple signature restaurants for highly acclaimed chefs. Over the last thirty years, Tihany Design has become the leading expert in creating luxurious and innovative interiors in the vibrant world of hospitality. The studio perpetuates the philosophy that every project should be a living, relevant, and unique entity.

Founded by Ernest Charles in 1908 under the name Maison Charles, Charles Paris specializes in the reproduction of antique lighting. With the years, the company has built a strong reputation among the bronze casting profession.

His two sons, Jean (First-Class Honours graduate from the Ecole Boulle) and Jacques (Applied Arts graduate) join their father in the family business in the late '50s. Together they design the most distinctive elements that will characterize the "Lampes Charles" style.

The '60s were marked by the huge success of the "Collection Inox" created by Jacques Charles. The collection becomes an aesthetic reference for that period.

In 1971, Chrystiane Charles, Gold Medal winner at the Ecole Supérieure Nationale des Beaux-Arts section Sculpture, takes over the family business and creates the collection that bears its name.

In the '80s, Maison Charles is awarded numerous prizes and joins the Comité Colbert that groups the most prestigious French art trade and design companies, consolidating in this way the company’s reputation for quality.

In 2001, Maison Charles is taken over by Michael Wagner who becomes chairman of the company. The workshops are relocated in Saint-Denis (a northern suburb of Paris), in the premises of the former workshops of the famous silversmithing brand, Christofle.

Since 2006 Philippe Parent has assumed the role of artistic director of the company. He has modernized several iconic pieces of the collection and has commissioned renowned designers to complete the collection with contemporary designs.

At the workshop, ten devoted craftsmen carry on hundred years of exceptional know-how. A tradition of excellence that has become duty. Dictated by the passion of men concerned about dedicating their talent and expertise to design a unique lamp: a home jewel that sculpts light.

Each piece is the work of a true master craftsman. Imagined, designed, poured, engraved, filed, polished, glazed, processed, degreased, varnished by talented craftsmen. A brilliant feat of craftsmanship carried out with the utmost care.
Beyond time and style, quality excellence constitutes Charles' main value.
