Standing gracefully on a round carrara marble base, the lamp features a sleek black metal stem that rises to support a beautifully crafted milk glass shade, casting a warm and inviting light. Brass accents add a touch of sophistication, enhancing the lamp’s timeless appeal. The marble base houses the light switch, seamlessly integrated into the design. The top glass shade is framed by two brass rings, each punctuated with carefully placed openings, while a slender brass rod extends from the top, adding a distinctive design element. Maintained in excellent original condition, this lamp preserves its authentic character while remaining a striking piece of functional design.
