Designed by Ian Thornton, who was inspired by Art Deco motifs from the 1920s and 1930s when he conceived the Thebes Table Lamp, the cast aluminum composition has a warm antique brass finish. The artful face with its expression that calls to mind both Egyptian and Parisian deco influences, looks into a room with its canny stare from both sides of the gold table lamp so it can be placed in the center of a space. The rectangular white shantung shade is perfectly in scale with the elongated metal body.
