“It all starts when Jean-Louis Domecq designs a lamp adapted to the needs of his activity; a simple, robust, articulated lamp with no cables in its joints. Its system of circular and concentric contact in the articulated arms makes it its feature/idiosyncrasy, a revolutionary concept composed of chrysocale, an alloy of copper, zinc and tin.” -text: Jieldé
