AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Elegant vintage Italian table lamp marked “HAND MADE IN ITALY – FIORENTINA” on the underside.

The lamp features a deep burgundy-red glass shade and matching pedestal base, combined with a white ceramic central body decorated with colourful roses and floral motifs. The structure is completed by ornate gilt-metal supports with scrolling botanical details, giving the lamp a refined Victorian Revival appearance.

The removable glass shade is included and can be easily lifted to access the bulb. The original electrical cable and plug are present.

The lamp is in good vintage condition and works properly. It has been tested and switches on regularly.

There are visible signs of age and use. The gilt-metal elements show patina, oxidation, and areas of surface wear. The ceramic and glass components display small imperfections consistent with age.

Although the lamp is currently in working order, because it is a vintage electrical item, buyers are advised to have the wiring checked by a qualified electrician before regular use.
