Description from the seller
Old electrified oil lamp – painted faience – brass – France – 1900/1910
An antique oil lamp of French origin, dating from the early 20th century, later converted into an electric lamp while preserving its original aesthetic.
The base is made of glazed earthenware, richly decorated with hand-painted polychrome floral motifs in shades of yellow, green, and orange, typical of French decorative production from the Belle Époque.
The finely crafted frame, with a circular base featuring moulded contours that ensure excellent stability.
The lamp is equipped with its original chimney glass.
The vintage electrical wiring includes an inline switch and an old French outlet, visible in the photos.
