The Table Lamp 10497 is a 1972 design by Michel Mortier, first published by Verre Lumière and now reissued by Disderot as part of an exclusive Monde Singulier edition.
The lamp's form is a study in restraint: a cylindrical stem, proportioned for a table surface, rises from a flat circular base to meet a rounded opaline glass shade. The tonal gradient runs from the shade down along the stem to the base, building a visual continuity that anchors the piece across a wide range of interiors. Nothing about the design is decorative for its own sake.
The stem and base are aluminium. The shade is opaline glass, formed to the original specifications. The Monde Singulier edition releases the 10497 in three exclusive gradient colorways: Beige, Green, and Blue.
The 10497 pairs with the Floor Lamp 10527, designed in the same year to the same proportional language. Both pieces sit within the Disderot collection on Monde Singulier, each carrying a numbered certificate of authenticity.

About
Disderot
Disderot is a French lighting publisher focused on reviving lamps conceived during the postwar decades of French modernism, from the 1950s through the 1970s. The house works from the archive of the Ateliers Pierre Disderot, a lighting publisher that collaborated with architects and independent designers throughout that era.
The approach is archival rather than interpretive. Each reissue follows the original specifications, manufactured in France with the same materials: aluminium bases, opaline glass lampshades, and the same attention to surface and finish. Every model carries a number and a certificate of authenticity, a distinction that matters in a category where undocumented reproductions circulate alongside certified editions.
The catalog spans several designers from the original Ateliers archive. Olivier Mourgue's 2093 series is reissued in wall, floor, table and pendant versions. Works by Janine Abraham and Dirk-Jan Rol are also part of the range. The Michel Mortier 10497 table lamp and 10527 floor lamp, designed in 1972 and originally published by Verre Lumière, are available on Monde Singulier in an exclusive gradient colorway: three finishes in Beige, Green and Blue applied to the aluminium and opaline glass form.
Disderot lighting is available on Monde Singulier, selected for the integrity of its numbered editions and the continuity of its French manufacturing.
