Description from the seller
## Table oil lamp in 800 silver and worked glass - Italy, Milan - XX century
Refined and important Italian-made table oil lamp, crafted with a structure in **silver 800/1000** and components in finely worked transparent glass.
The lamp features rich decorative work of classic taste, with **pierced elements, vegetal and ornamental motifs, full-round figures and finely chased details**.

The upper part is completed by an elegant **glass shade/chimney worked glass**, with the distinctive elongated shape and a flared upper opening. The glass presents softened geometric decorations and facets that enhance the luminosity of the whole.
There are also additional components in worked glass and the original elements of the lamp system, as documented in the photographs.
