THE MELT FLOOR LAMP BY JEAN-YVES LANVIN COMBINES THE ELEGANCE OF SCULPTED BRASS WITH THE DELICACY OF AN ASYMMETRICAL SILK SHADE, A CAPTIVATING CONTRAST BETWEEN WEIGHT AND SOFTNESS. THE BRASS STEM RISES WITH THE LOGIC OF ITS NAME, ITS SURFACE CAUGHT MID GESTURE AS THOUGH METAL HAD BEEN ALLOWED TO MOVE BEFORE SETTLING INTO FORM

THIS FLUID TEXTURE IS NOT ORNAMENT, IT IS THE MEMORY OF PROCESS MADE PERMANENT, POOLING AT THE BASE INTO A FOOTPRINT AS ORGANIC AS THE COLUMN IT SUPPORTS. ABOVE, THE SHADE’S ANGLED PLANES CUT A DELIBERATE COUNTERPOINT TO THE MOLTEN LINE BELOW, HOLDING STRUCTURE AGAINST FLOW

HANDCRAFTED IN FRANCE, MELT IS NOT SIMPLY A LAMP BUT A STRIKING SCULPTURAL PRESENCE, ITS SOFT LIGHT WARMING THE ROOM THROUGH SILK WHILE THE POLISHED BRASS BENEATH HOLDS THE STILLNESS OF SOMETHING ONCE IN MOTION

BIOGRAPHY

Jean-Yves Lanvin

Born Paris, France, 1965

A French artist based in Milan, Lanvin creates limited-edition sculptural furniture with rare and exquisite minerals, jewelry-like finishes, and striking profiles. His visionary works sit at the intersection between art and design, characterized by a sculptural approach emphasizing asymmetrical and strong lines. His creations celebrate the rich history of European craftsmanship and contemporary innovation with fine metals, noble stones, and rare minerals

Sculptural yet functional, elegant yet robust, experimental yet rooted in history, his works explore the design tension between balance and imbalance, both in the construction and appearance of the work. He is drawn to the sense of anticipation engendered by irregularity, and the challenge of creating a work that is both elegant and wild, rough and sleek

Heir to the Lanvin family, he spent his childhood in a rarified world of with elegance, creativity and artistry. After working in finance for Lazard Frères in New York and Salomon Brothers in London, he embraced his passion for art and design, representing fine French design houses, through which he gained a deep knowledge of foundries, the casting process, and fine metalwork. Lanvin works closely with heritage artisans at his atelier in Tuscany to produce each of his unique works
