The figure is surrounded by elegant classical detailing, reflecting traditional European‑inspired ornamentation popular in mid‑century decorative lighting.
Faceted crystal elements are incorporated into the design, catching and reflecting light to create a soft, shimmering glow that enhances the lamp’s sculptural presence. The contrast between the richly toned metal and sparkling crystal gives the piece a refined, luxurious character.

The lamp retains its original Underwriters’ Laboratories (UL) paper inspection label, identifying it as a portable lamp inspected and approved under Issue No. 11300 by Westwood Industries, Inc., New York, N.Y. This label indicates a professional mid‑20th‑century electrification, confirming that the lamp was commercially converted and safety‑inspected rather than later rewired, an important detail for collectors and designers.

With its blend of classical figural sculpture, quality materials, and documented vintage electrification, this lamp functions equally well as a practical light source and a decorative statement. It is ideally suited for traditional, antique, neoclassical, or vintage‑inspired interiors, and works beautifully as an accent lamp in a living room, bedroom, or study. See less
