AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Large hand-carved polychrome wooden lamp – floral decoration – Italian Baroque style – 20th century
Elegant and scenographic table lamp made of turned wood, carved and hand-painted, characterized by a slender structure about 65 cm tall.
The composition echoes the form of antique Italian candelabras and decorative vaselike stands, with a flared circular base, body articulated in several turned and shaped elements, central band carved with foliate motifs and a tapering shaft.
Particularly pleasing is the polychrome decoration: the background in ocher/yellow gold tones is enriched with sage green profiles and small bouquets and floral stems hand-painted in red, pink, green and light blue. Some carved parts feature a gold finish.
The overall style is decidedly Baroque and Rococo, linked to the Italian tradition of polychrome decorative furnishings.
The lamp retains the lamp holder and electric cable covered in fabric. It is offered without a lampshade, allowing the new owner to complete it according to their taste.
Conditions:
The object presents vintage conditions with evident signs of time, which must be carefully considered before purchase.
There are widespread wear, scratches, abrasions and numerous losses and lifting of the polychromy and gilding, particularly evident along the profiles and the most exposed parts.
Also noted are significant longitudinal cracks in the wood in some elements of the body, clearly documented in the photographs. Small chips and traces of previous interventions/consolidations are also visible.
The patina overall is consistent with the age and contributes to the decorative character of the object.
The electrical system is present; for safety reasons, it is advisable to have it checked by qualified personnel before use, especially considering the object's age.
The photographs are an integral part of the description and document in detail the condition.
Shipping:
Careful and professional packing, with impact protection adequate to the shape and delicacy of the object. Tracked shipping.
