Frechin à Table – When Iconic Design Becomes Nomadic

Frechin à Table – When Iconic Design Becomes Nomadic

In 2025, Jean-Louis Frechin unveiled a new version of one of his most iconic designs: the Frechin à Table lamp for DCW Éditions Paris. Derived from the large Frechin lamp, presented in 2022 and now part of the permanent collections at the Centre Pompidou and the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, this compact edition reimagines lighting as a nomadic, poetic, and functional object.

A Timeless Design Turned Everyday Object

Frechin à Table preserves the codes that made its predecessor a success: a cylinder combining glass, marble, and aluminum, where warm light (2200K) interacts beautifully with material textures. More than just a lamp, it is a miniature luminous sculpture, designed to accompany life’s moments with elegance.

Compact (H16.6 cm, ⌀13 cm) and lightweight (0.9 kg), it can be carried easily from one space to another. Whether placed on a bedside table, a desk, a summer terrace, or in a fine restaurant, it creates an intimate and refined atmosphere.

Thanks to its rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery, Frechin à Table provides up to 20 hours of autonomy depending on brightness settings. Its magnetic charging system is simple, fast, and can be used while the lamp is on. This mobility makes it a perfect companion for both private interiors and professional settings such as hotels and restaurants.
