This pair keeps that balance simple — a stepped brass base and collar bracketing a warm wooden center column, with nothing else competing for attention on the stem itself.

The shades carry the more elaborate detail: pleated fabric in a deep burgundy red, printed with a cream botanical pattern, finished with a scalloped lower edge rather than a plain hem. The pleating does real work when lit, since each fold catches and releases light slightly differently, giving the shade a texture it wouldn't have flat.

Both lamps show even, undamaged brass and a smooth wood finish on the columns, with the pleated shades intact and unfaded. Sold as a genuine matching pair, they suit flanking a console, bracketing a sideboard, or sitting symmetrically on either side of a bed.
