Description from the seller

Magnificent vintage table lamp from Joh. W. Borkus Verlichting, a classic Dutch supplier of luxury interior lighting from Amsterdam. The lamp has a heavy brass base with a square footprint, a turned shaft, and a bulbous mahogany- or ebony-colored foot, finished with gilded accents for an art deco-inspired look. The striking pyramidal shade is clad in glossy ‘tortoiseshell’ (schildpadschaal) pattern material in bronze and gold tones, which emits a warm, diffuse light.

Perfectly functional with cord and switch; stands stable and in good vintage condition with no damage.

Carefully packed and sent by registered mail.
