Description from the seller

Carved wooden figurine lamp – Night Watchman / Pilgrim with lantern – circa mid-20th century

Atmospheric and decorative carved wooden figurine lamp depicting a nocturnal watcher or pilgrim with staff and lantern. The figure is entirely hand-carved and made of solid wood, with beautiful expressive facial details and a warm, aged patina.

The figure wears a hat and cloak and holds a staff with a decorative shield-shaped top in one hand, and a metal lantern with amber-colored panes in the other. When the lamp is lit, it emits a particularly warm and nostalgic glow.

This type of lamp was popular as an interior and atmosphere object during the period approximately from the 1950s to the 1970s, often in rural, chalet, or medieval-inspired interiors.
