AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Pair of table lamps made of golden brass, designed in the Louis XVI style, with clear French neoclassical inspiration. Each lamp features a fluted columnar shaft, topped with decorative elements such as Corinthian capitals, garlands, rosettes, and molded square bases, all crafted with precision in casting and finished with an aged gold patina.

The structure evokes the elegance and symmetry typical of the 18th century, reinterpreted in a decorative style for the 20th century. The design is intended to combine functionality and ornamentation, making it ideal for classic environments, refined salons, or desks with a historicist accent.

These pieces, probably dated to the first half of the 20th century, reflect the taste for decorative revival and artisanal quality in the production of lighting fixtures. Their condition and formal richness make them valuable objects for both decorative use and applied arts collection.

Certified shipping and good packaging.
