20th Century “Muletas” Surrealist Standing Lamp by Salvador Dalí Black Edition

Drawn by Dalí for Jean Michel Frank, Oscar Tusquets and Robert Descharnes brought the design to life. It branches upwards with a set of linking crutches bound like bones. In 2009, BD commemorated the 20th Anniversary of the death of Salvador Dali with a limited-edition ‘black label’ series of his collection. It has a powerful presence and illuminates behind the folds of its draped black chiffon shade.

All the finishing’s are based on black, with aged black patina on the casted brass, Black Marquina marble for the famous egg, darkened gold leaf and dyed lime wood satin in black for the upholstery and lingerie chiffon, also black for the lamp shades. Refined materials and handcrafted manufacturing to bring up to date a furniture collection that BD has sold exclusively all over the world since the 90s, guaranteed by The Gala-Salvador Dali Foundation responsible for the painter’s rights. The black label collection came to market in a limited edition of 105 pieces (the age of Dali in 2009).

Carved structure in black stained and varnished lime-wood, and black linen shade.
