Description from the seller

Exclusive and Monumental Stiffel Table Lamp – USA, 1960s/1970s

Allow yourself to be entranced by the pure class of this monumental table lamp from the world-famous Stiffel Lamp Company of Chicago, USA. With an impressive total height of no less than 100 cm, this object is an absolute showstopper in any high-end interior.

Design & Quality: The lamp is designed as a classical Roman or Greek urn, featuring refined vertical fluting and acanthus-leaf-like ornaments. Stiffel was renowned for its unparalleled quality in cast brass and employed a secret, patented varnish process (Stiffel Finish) to protect the metal. The stunning combination of patinated brass with deep-black accents gives the lamp an extremely luxurious appearance.

Original Condition: What makes this lot extra unique is the presence of the original, tall cylindrical lampshade. The brand name "STIFFEL" is clearly stamped into the central brass spin (ring) of the shade construction (see photos). This proves the object's absolute authenticity. The shade rests on the characteristic American 'harp' bracket and is crowned at the top with an elegant brass finial (screw knob).

Specifications:
• Total height (including shade): 100 cm
• Height of lamp base (to socket): 95 cm
• Lampshade dimensions: Diameter 36 cm / Height 42 cm
• Base dimensions: 15.5 x 15.5 cm (tapered square)
• Weight: 5.5 kg (heavy, solid quality; extremely stable)
• Condition: In a beautiful, functioning vintage state with minimal, characteristic signs of aging that suit the age and contribute to the lovely patina. See the photo gallery for a detailed impression.
A rare and monumental design object of American origin that is seldom offered on the European market in this complete, original condition.

The lamp will be packed with the utmost care and professionalism (if necessary, the shade and base will be protected separately in the box) and shipped insured with tracking.
