A sumptuous art nouveau desk lamp, crafted entirely from solid brass, likely dating from 1900-1910. Typical of french notary or solicitor lamps of the belle époque, this period piece captivates with its elegant lines and rich ornamentation.
its gracefully curved gooseneck arm rises from a circular base with beaded decoration, lending the lamp a distinctive and refined silhouette. The horizontal cylindrical shade, pivoting thanks to a double ball joint, is adorned with repoussé motifs typical of art nouveau: a central fleur-de-lis and symmetrical scrolls at the corners. The interior reveals a silvered metal reflector and a notched knob socket for a tubular filament bulb.
the natural golden-amber patina of the brass, the slight traces of oxidation, and the overall wear attest to the piece's authenticity and age, giving it that incomparable charm that only time can bestow.
a decorative and functional piece ideal for enhancing a desk, library, or cabinet of curiosities in a belle époque or art nouveau style.
