AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Vintage Baroque Florentine-style table lamp – Carved and decorated wood in ochre and brown with a macramé lace lampshade – Italy, about 1960/1970
Charming and elegant antique table lamp in full Baroque Florentine style, made in Italy between the late 1960s and early 1970s. This piece perfectly embodies the rich, theatrical aesthetic of the period, ideal for adding a retro warmth or for placement in an eclectic and characterful interior setting.
The sculpted base is entirely made of carved wood, adorned with classic volutes and acanthus leaf motifs. The finish features an ochre color patina, enhanced by a distinctive dark patination that provides depth, beautifully highlighting the geometric reliefs of the structure. The lamp rests firmly on a stepped square base.
The lamp is topped with a refined and original cupola-pagoda shade, covered by a dense and detailed lace (macramé-type) on a solid-color background, finished with braided trim along the upper edge. When lit, the lacework filters the light, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere with a strong visual impact, enhancing the botanical motifs of the fabric.
• Base footprint: 12.5 x 12.5 cm
The electrical system is original to its production era, perfectly functioning, equipped with a flexible cord showing signs of age and a vintage passing switch.
The base is solid and stable. Natural and normal signs of aging are present. Any other cosmetic defects are the result of artisanal workmanship and finishing techniques of the era, in which such characteristics were sought to give the object its distinctive antique look.
The fabric is in excellent exterior condition; the inner double fabric shows a crack not visible from the outside, and for thoroughness I note a small stain from yellowing still inside.
The bottom of the base shows the typical artisanal workmanship of the original unfinished wood.

Seller's Story
For over 20 years, I have dedicated myself passionately to the search for and trading of special, rare, curious objects from any era.
Every piece I select has something that catches my attention: it can be the shape, the story, the unusual aspect, or simply that detail that makes it unique.
I am always searching for objects that speak, that tell something to those who know how to listen.
I choose them carefully, photograph them honestly, and describe them as accurately as possible.
Selling on this Catawiki to share this passion with those who, like me, love to surround themselves with things with a soul.
