Description from the seller
## Silver 800/1000 Table Oil Lamp with Worked Glass - Italy, Milan - 20th Century
Refined and important Italian-made table oil lamp, crafted with a structure in silver 800/1000 and finely worked transparent glass components.
The lamp features rich decorative work in a classic taste, with **pierced elements, vegetal and ornamental motifs, full-figure figures, and finely chased details**.
The central silver body is particularly elaborate, 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 worked glass**, with the characteristic elongated shape and flared open top. The glass bears rounded and faceted geometric decorations that enhance the luminance 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 frame the **punch “800”** is clearly visible, certifying the silver’s fineness at 800/1000, and the **Italian silversmith mark with the initials MI**, referring to the province of Milan.
