AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Pair of palm stands in carved wood, gilded with fine gold in the late 19th/early 20th century, originally used as altar vases to hold palms or artificial flowers. These pieces have a chalice or urn shape with pierced scroll handles and foliage.

Made of carved wood and finished with gold gilding. They were transformed into table lamps in the second half of the 20th century, with the addition of a square base and wooden faux candles (lamp holders) and electrical wiring.

Good condition with normal signs of time and use.

Height is about 30 cm, with a square base; side length about 13 cm.

Total weight about 1 kg.

I do not ship outside the European Community.

The lot will be carefully packed and shipped in a reinforced polystyrene box.
