Pair of late 19th century copper Venetian lamps on poles, circa 1890.
Hexagonal in shape with original glass, later converted to electric. Beautifully pressed and pierced metalwork, with barley twist columns. We believe the velvet-clad poles and carved gilt wood bases to be earlier in date. As illustrated in the last picture, the bases have a removable wedge for angling into a room or walkway.
Some losses to the floral applied leaves, and some structural weakness where the lamps join the poles—this is due to the weight and materials used. This makes these rare to have even survived, making them more suitable for decorative purposes. They could be re-wired or restored back to housing candles.
Up to 250V (Europe/UK Standard).The wiring of this item may be original and might need replacement, if not specified otherwise.
