Description from the seller

Table oil lamp in 800 silver and worked glass - Italy, Milan - 20th century

Refined and important table oil lamp of Italian manufacture, made with a structure in 800/1000 silver and components in finely worked transparent glass.

The lamp features rich decorative work in a classic taste, with **openwork elements, vegetal and ornamental motifs, full-face figures and finely chased details**.

Particularly elaborate is the central silver body, characterized by a domed and fluted surface, enriched laterally by decorative figures. The structure rests on a shaped base supported by **four ornamental feet**.

The upper part is completed by an elegant **glass shade/chimney in worked glass**, with the distinctive elongated form and a flared top opening. The glass presents molded and faceted geometric decorations that enhance the luminosity of the whole.

There are also additional worked glass components and the original elements of the lamp system, as documented in the photographs.

On the metal structure the **punch “800”** is clearly visible, certifying the silver grade 800/1000, and the **Italian silversmith’s mark with the MI acronym**, attributable to the Province of Milan.
