A vintage banana tree rattan and wicker floor lamp, in the manner of Mario Lopez, late 20th century

£1,795.00

A striking vintage banana tree floor lamp crafted in rattan and wicker, executed in the manner of Mario Lopez. This sculptural piece features a beautifully curved trunk rising from a wide, coiled circular base, culminating in an abundant canopy of woven palm fronds and hanging banana clusters. The intricate handwoven detailing throughout (particularly in the layered leaves and fruit) demonstrates exceptional craftsmanship and evokes the playful yet refined tropical aesthetic for which Lopez became known.

Celebrated for his iconic organic lighting designs of the 1970s, Mario Lopez popularised whimsical palm and botanical forms rendered in natural materials such as rattan and wicker. His work perfectly captured the Hollywood Regency and coastal glamour style of the era, blending theatrical presence with artisanal technique. This lamp embodies that spirit, making it a bold statement piece ideal for eclectic, bohemian, or mid-century inspired interiors.

A rare and decorative example of vintage tropical lighting design, both functional and sculptural.

Condition: good vintage condition with age-appropriate wear throughout. Minor scuffs, natural variations and small imperfections to the rattan and wicker consistent with age and use. Electrically untested but appears complete with cord and switch present. Please refer to photographs

Dimensions: 80cm wide, 80cm deep, 210cm high
