AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Magnificent pair of bronze lamps in the "Grout Grec" style, coming from France, from the mid-20th century (c. 1940-1960).
From late Neoclassicism with Art Deco influences, and created with cast gilded bronze, each lamp depicts a figure of a woman, with swaths of fabric in the wind and a dynamic pose (possibly a representation of a muse or a nymph):
It supports the shaft that ends at the light point. The Rococo-style base rests on three feet decorated with vegetal reliefs.
The quality of the chiseling is spectacular, evident in the detail of the hair and the folds of the tunic, which capture the light masterfully.
Excellent condition. They have been fully rewired to meet current safety standards.
Dimensions: 36 cm in height and 15 cm in diameter.
This is an exceptional set of lamps, which bring an atmosphere of sophistication, luxury and elegance to your home.
They are shipped in careful and secure packaging.
