A pair of two matching table lamps in a classical style with brass-coloured, elaborately decorated bases and cream lampshades printed with historical handwriting and red seals, model Elegance from France, dating to 1950–1960, in good vintage condition and in working order, with dimensions 25 cm wide, 25 cm deep and 35 cm high.
Description from the seller
Cozy and decorative set of two matching table lamps in a classic style. The lamps have richly decorated, brass-colored metal bases and are equipped with cream-colored shades featuring a striking print of historically styled handwriting, calligraphy, and red wax seals.
A particularly decorative pair that, thanks to its warm appearance, fits well in both a classical, vintage, and eclectic interior.
### Construction and details
Both lamps feature a beautifully formed base with various classical ornaments. The central section is designed as a stylized leaf or flower shape, combined with ribbed and profiled sections. The combination of gold and brass tones gives the lamps a warm, elegant look.
On the front of each lamp base there is a characteristic push switch with a light-colored push button. This original look is clearly visible in the detail photos.
The metal surfaces have a natural, lived-in character with localized discoloration, patina, small dark spots and signs of use. It is precisely these traces of age that give the set a lot of charm and character.
### Special lamp shades
The two matching cream-colored shades form an important decorative element of this set. They are printed with various handwritten texts, calligraphic fragments, and historical script motifs in black.
Both shades also feature a dark red image in the shape of a classic wax seal. Black piping along the top and bottom edges provides a beautiful contrast and completes the design.
When the lamps are lit, the warm light shines through the cream-colored shades, making the texts and decorations come to life in a particularly atmospheric way.
### As a set
The lamps form a harmonious pair. By placing them to the left and right of a sideboard, sidetable, buffet cabinet, mantle, or bed, you create a beautiful symmetrical arrangement.
They are also attractive as ambient lighting in a living room, library, study, bedroom, or interiors with antique and vintage elements.
### Condition
The set is in used vintage condition.
Visible signs of age and use are present on the metal parts, including patina, discolorations, small spots and superficial signs of wear. These are clearly shown in the photos.
The lamp shades also show the look typical of used decorative objects. Please review all photos carefully; they form an important part of the description and provide a good impression of the state, details, and construction.
The lamps have been photographed from multiple angles. In addition, close-ups have been added of, among other things, the decorative base, metal finish, stand, push switch, and lamp shade.
