The lamp features a finely cast metal base in a deep oiled bronze finish, with a slender, tapering column rising from a shaped plinth base. Decorative chain elements beneath the socket reference early oil lamp forms, adding a layer of historical authenticity and visual interest.

The dark bronze surface provides a rich, understated contrast to the light-colored shade, allowing the sculptural qualities of the base to stand out without overwhelming a space. Its tall, refined proportions make it well suited for use on a side table, console, or desk, where it offers both functional lighting and a strong architectural presence. The overall design works comfortably within traditional interiors while also complementing more transitional or eclectic rooms.

The lamp is in nice vintage condition, consistent with age and normal use. The bronze finish shows light wear and patina, contributing to its character and depth. The shade is presentable and serviceable, and the lamp has been adapted for modern electrical use, making it ready for everyday enjoyment while retaining its period-inspired charm. 30h x 9w x 9d See less
