AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This refined Neoclassical-style table lamp represents a perfect decorative element for elegant rooms, studies, or refined bedside tables. The structure is made of silvered metal (likely silvered zamak) and depicts a finely chiseled putto that supports the lamp shaft, resting on a Rocaille volute base with a Baroque flavor.

The lighting fixture is completed by a truncated-cone lampshade in cream-colored fabric with marble-effect veining, finished with gold trim that harmonizes the light, making it warm and soft. The piece skillfully blends sculptural aesthetics with practicality, making it a collectible item ideal for those seeking a period detail with timeless charm.

Conditions: The item is in good overall condition with normal signs of wear on the metal surface and on the lampshade; original electrical system from the period, functioning.
