Elegant Parisian lamp in gilded brass, with a total height of 56 cm (shade included) and a diameter of 25 cm, refinishing the decorative arts and the know-how of Parisian luminaires of the Belle Époque with refined elegance.
The reservoir, with its harmonious curve, is richly outlined by engraved friezes and adorned with decorative cabochons, giving the whole a presence that is both noble and decorative.
