Delivered free · US duties paid · Insured
There is a restrained confidence to mid-century French brass work of this kind — a plain, tapered column set on a square footed base, its only ornament a pair of blackened, petal-form corollas encircling the stem, one above the base and one beneath the socket. That kind of controlled contrast, gilt bronze against darkened bronze, was a favored device in postwar decorative metalwork, a way of adding rhythm to a form without any unnecessary flourish. It carries the character of a well-appointed

There is a restrained confidence to mid-century French brass work of this kind — a plain, tapered column set on a square footed base, its only ornament a pair of blackened, petal-form corollas encircling the stem, one above the base and one beneath the socket. That kind of controlled contrast, gilt bronze against darkened bronze, was a favored device in postwar decorative metalwork, a way of adding rhythm to a form without any unnecessary flourish. It carries the character of a well-appointed mid-century living room or bedroom, the kind of lamp meant to sit quietly on a nightstand or console, ready to be finished with whatever shade suits the room around it.
Each lamp has a plain, tapered circular column rising from a square, paneled base, with a pair of blackened corolla rings encircling the stem — one just above the base and one just below the socket. The gilt bronze has a warm, even tone throughout, and the ribbed line detailing on the base is echoed in the socket fitting above.
This is offered as a matched pair of lamp bases, sold without shades. They take a standard E14 screw bulb.
Each item is carefully and professionally packed and fully insured for worldwide shipping. US import duties are included in the price. For other destinations, local import taxes and duties may apply and are payable by the recipient. Returns are accepted within 30 days.
