French 19th Century Empire Bronze Table Lamp

Offered by: Fireside Antiques

Description
Dimensions: 37 ⅛” H x 18 ¼” W x 10 ½” D

French 19th century Empire style cast bronze table lamp with new linen shade, converted from gas to electric. This substantial Neoclassical fixture has a Greco-Roman female figure for a base, elevating a large urn above her head from which the socket rises, diffusing the light under a rectangular linen shade. The pedestal is ebonized wood with faint craquelure and some patina. As a single lamp, this would work well in a variety of interiors and rooms such as for a desk lamp or on a side table to appreciate the sculptural quality of the bronze. Look closely and one can still observe a cross-hatched texture imparted by the hand of the artist. Professionally cleaned and rewired adding a new black fabric cord with in-line switch and white linen shade to diffuse the light from a standard-base bulb. Note the switch just below the socket as well. Please view the detailed images to see more.
