Description from the seller
Vintage floor lamp in Liberty style – turned wood, brass and fringed fabric shade
Elegant vintage floor lamp with a strong decorative presence, featuring a sophisticated combination of turned wood, golden-tone metal and a large original fabric lampshade with long decorative fringes.
The lamp has a slender structure with a central brass-tone metal column, enriched by beautifully turned wooden elements featuring an attractive spiral/barley-twist design. The upper section houses a distinctive three-light arrangement, with each light socket integrated into a decorative turned wooden element. The structure is completed by elegant metal side arms with curved ornamental scrolls.
The large original fabric lampshade is one of the most distinctive features of the piece. It has a rounded, domed form, beige/golden fabric, decorative trimming and an abundant fringe border. Its appearance recalls elegant interiors from the first half of the 20th century, with influences from Liberty, Art Nouveau and decorative vintage design.
The circular wooden base is richly shaped and turned, with a decorative metal element at its centre. The lower column continues the spiral motif found in the upper structure, giving the lamp a coherent and highly decorative appearance.
Period: 20th century, vintage period, with stylistic references to Liberty/Art Nouveau.
Style: Liberty, Art Nouveau, decorative vintage.
Materials: turned wood, brass/golden-tone metal, fabric, trimming and fringe.
Lighting: three light points.
Provenance: unknown; vintage European decorative object, undocumented attribution.
Condition
The lamp is in good overall vintage condition, considering its age and previous use. It shows normal signs of age, including light oxidation and patina to the metal components and minor marks to the wooden structure.
The lampshade shows some age-related defects, clearly visible in the photographs, including a tear/hole in the upper fabric section and some imperfections to the fringe. These are part of the current condition of the item and have been photographed for transparency.
The electrical system is vintage. Professional inspection by a qualified electrician is recommended before use, particularly for regular everyday operation.
A highly decorative piece suitable for a living room, study, bedroom, entrance hall, boutique, hotel or sophisticated vintage/antique interior. Its proportions and elaborate decoration also make it an impressive statement piece.
The photographs form an integral part of the description and accurately document the current condition.
Shipping: the lamp will be carefully packaged using appropriate protective materials, with particular attention to the delicate lampshade and decorative elements. Estimated delivery time is approximately 5–15 working days depending on destination.
