Pair of Gold-Tone Candlestick Table Lamp Bases, Square Feet, 27 cm

Converting a pair of candlesticks into table lamps is one of the more common transformations in European lighting — the tall, turned stem and weighted base already do most of the work, needing only a wired fitting in place of a candle cup to become a functioning lamp. It's a practical marriage of two forms, and pairs converted this way have furnished bedside tables and consoles for generations precisely because the proportions were right from the start.

This pair follows that same logic: each lamp rises from a stepped, square brass base through a turned, waisted brass stem to a wide, urn-shaped cup at the top, fitted for electric use. The two lamps are closely matched in form and finish, standing together as a genuine pair rather than an assembled match. Worth noting for anyone new to this type: the cup-shaped top is a direct echo of a candle socket's shape, carried over into the lamp fitting rather than disguised, which is part of what gives this style of lamp its recognizable silhouette.

Condition is consistent with vintage, previously-owned pieces, and may show minor signs of handling and use as is typical for this type. The pair has clearly been well kept, and now moves forward together to a new setting. Suited to flanking a sofa, a mantel, or a pair of bedside tables, where their matched silhouette reads best side by side.

Brass throughout, turned stem and urn-form cup on a stepped square base; weight not recorded. Sold as a pair.
