This Cuspid Lamp features a vibrant geometric motif depicted in forged bronze and nickel-plated metal. The geometric rectangular pattern is inspired by the works of the great Cubist artist and sculptor George Braque. The lamp base is shaped in rounded format, presenting different views of the shallow relief of the geometrical motif - making it a perfect piece to be viewed in the round. The Cuspid Lamp also includes a luxurious silk shade.
CUSPID COLLECTION
The Cuspid Collection is one of the earliest collections designed by Juan and Paloma Garrido. Developed at the early stages of the new era of GARRIDO workshop, the collection strongly references the craft of silversmiths. It showcases the superlative skill of GARRIDO as masters of silver, artfully displaying numerous traditional techniques rarely used these days. The collection experiments with and challenges the technical skills of soldering, cold-bending, forging, polishing and embossing. Using geometrical shapes and angularity, the collection alludes to Cubism, forming a study of three dimensionality through volume and line. Similarly to Cubism the Cuspid Collection uses broken up forms and creates an illusion of presenting a multitude of viewpoints in a greater context.
