The sculptural bodies feature a beautifully aged grey-green patinated ground accented with hand-applied gilt highlights, creating a refined contrast that enhances the depth of the ornamentation.
Each urn is encircled with a band of carved floral and foliate motifs set against a deep blue ground, lending a subtle neoclassical character. The gadrooned borders and fluted lower sections add texture and visual rhythm, while the overall silhouette remains balanced and architectural. The lamps are raised on square bases, giving them strong presence and stability.
Newly wired to US standards, the pair is fitted with custom tailored shades in a soft neutral damask fabric, finished with decorative fringe trim that complements the classical design. The combination of aged patina, gilt accents, and updated functionality makes these pieces both decorative and practical.
These antique lamps would work beautifully on a pair of nightstands, flanking a sofa, or anchoring a console in a formal living space.
The pair is in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, with a warm and desirable time-softened patina throughout.
