Fractal resin lamp set of 3, circa 1970

Rare series of three fractal resin lamps with fiberglass lampshades from the 1970s maximum height 53 cm diameter 17 cm the fractal resin is the result of advanced know-how. Born at the end of the 1950s, it is the result of complex chemical processes, resulting from high temperature firing and successive polishing. Which gives an almost magical result; glittery, fragmented, filled with bubbles or crystals, sometimes including inclusions. These are always unique pieces. Worn by artists such as marie-claude de fouquières, pierre giraudon, françois godebski, franco gavagni and pierre charbin, who were its precursors, it offers freedom of expression and a range of dazzling colors. A sort of antidote to gloom, this material still fascinates today.
