American table lamp model 'Nicole' in black with glossy gold-tone trim, dating to 1960–1970, made of brass, steel and textile, with a large conical cream lampshade, 60 cm high, 30 cm wide and 30 cm deep, in good vintage condition and in working order.
Description from the seller
A highly decorative American table lamp, model “Nicole,” crafted in a stylish combination of deep black and glossy gold-toned accents. Because of its substantial size, the classic vase shape, and the striking finish, this is a true attention grabber that fits perfectly in both classic and eclectic interiors.
The substantial lamp base has an elegant, symmetrical silhouette with a broad round base. The black surface features a characteristic crackle-like texture, which becomes especially visible in oblique light. This fine texture adds depth to the lamp and gives it a slightly lived-in, luxurious appearance.
Around the middle of the base there is a wide gold-toned ornamental band consisting of several profiled edges. The underside and top edges are also richly finished with shiny gold elements. The contrast between the dark body and the warm gold creates the pronounced look reminiscent of American interiors from the latter half of the 20th century and the Hollywood Regency style.
On top of the lamp base sits a wide gold-toned, dish-shaped finish that transitions into the socket. The reflective metal surfaces catch the light beautifully and intensify the warm glow when the lamp is switched on.
Lamp shade
The lamp is offered with the depicted large conical lampshade. The shade has a warm cream/beige tint and features a subtle organic, marbled pattern. The metal rims along the upper and lower edges harmonize nicely with the gold details of the lamp base.
When the lamp is lit, the light is pleasantly dispersed through the shade. This creates a warm and atmospheric lighting, particularly suitable for a living room, a spacious hallway, a bedroom, hotel interiors, or an office.
Due to its substantial size, this lamp can function as both functional lighting and a standalone decorative interior piece.
Condition
The lamp is in good vintage condition with signs of use and aging appropriate to its age. In the close-up photos, the finish, crackle effect, and gold-colored parts are clearly visible.
The gold surfaces may show light uneven coloration, scratches, patina, and other signs of wear in places. The black finish also has a characteristic texture. These features are shown as clearly as possible in the photos and contribute to the vintage character of the piece.
The lamp is shown in working condition in the photos.
The lampshade also shows normal signs of use that can be expected with a vintage object. Please review all photos carefully for a good impression of the construction and condition; the photos are an integral part of the description.
