AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Exclusive pair of large supporting lamps (usable as important bedside lamps or tall ambient floor lamps) of Italian manufacture, dating from the late '60s to early '70s. The set perfectly embodies the Hollywood Regency style standards of the era, merging the visual richness of gold finishes with the modernist purity of spherical geometries:
• Solid Brass Construction: Both lamps feature a solid, heavy full-brass structure. The metal retains its charming original patina from the period, showing natural surface oxidation and age-related marks that attest to authenticity and value compared to modern reproductions.
• Diamond-like Geometric Engraving: The shaft is enhanced, both on the upper part beneath the sphere-support cup and on the lower part near the base, with a refined engraving featuring a diamond/criss-cross lozenge motif that creates beautiful golden reflections.
• Diffusers: Large 25 cm (9.8 in) glossy white opal glass spheres, intact and free of cracks, seams, or chips. They provide a warm, enveloping glow.
• NEW Wiring: The wiring has been completely redone from scratch by artisans to ensure total safety in modern settings. Socket (small standard E14, ideal for LED bulbs), cables, switches and plugs are all brand new.
Real Dimensions:
• Overall height: 95 cm
• Glass globe diameter: 25 cm
• Base diameter: 20 cm
Conditions:
Stable, solid metal structures in solid brass with charming patina and era-typical surface oxidation. The glass is in impeccable condition, free of defects. The electrical system is new and fully functional.
Given the delicacy of the two large glass globes and the height of the structures, the lamps will be partially disassembled. Shipping will be carried out in two separate packages, carefully protected with abundant impact-proof material (bubble wrap and rigid polystyrene) to ensure safe delivery throughout Europe.
