These classic French-style desk or table lamps showcase the traditional bouillotte design with two gracefully curved arms, each fitted with standard candelabra bulb sockets.
The adjustable French gray tole shades add a sophisticated touch and feature the characteristic "arrow" turn key mechanism, allowing you to direct light exactly where needed. The warm gilt brass finish beautifully complements the soft gray of the shades, creating a refined color palette that works with both traditional and transitional interiors.
While unmarked, these lamps exhibit the quality craftsmanship associated with mid-century lighting manufacture. They're perfect for flanking a console, gracing a pair of nightstands, or adding symmetry to a desk or credenza.
Condition
Very good vintage condition with no issues of note. The original 120-volt wiring with cord switches has been tested and is fully functional. The tole shade surfaces are solid with no flaking or deterioration. Normal age-appropriate patina to the brass adds to their authentic vintage character.
Dimensions
Each lamp measures:

Width: 13"
Depth: 8.5"
Height: 24.5" (measured to top of center pole finial)
