A set of four Art Deco style patinated resin figural lamp bases, circa 1970, in the manner of Max Le Verrier

By repute acquired from Biba, London.

Biba was one of London's most popular clothing and homeware shops from the mid-1960s to the mid-1970s, with youthful and colourful designs that are now the signature 'look' of the era. Starting off as a mail-order business, it had its first shop on Kensington Church Street and later moved to a seven-storey building on Kensington High Street in 1973. Its founder, Barbara Hulanicki, had a flair for the exuberant and drew inspiration from the Victorian, Art Nouveau and Art Deco design for her fashion designs and the famous interior of the sumptuous flagship store.
