This working vintage table lamp from France, dating to 1960–1970, combines turned brown wood, wrought-iron-look metal and frosted and clear glass in a 19th-century quinquet-style design.
Description from the seller
Vintage oil lamp style table lamp made of turned wood and wrought iron (so-called quinquet or student lamp imitation) is shown.
Key features
• Design and style. The lamp is reminiscent of the 19th century height-adjustable oil lamps (student lamp / quinquet lamp), which were designed to operate electrically.
• Use of materials. The base, the left-hand element serving as a counterweight and the lower part of the lamp body are made of richly turned solid wood stained in a dark brown. The central support bar, the grip ring on the top and the decorative, spiral-shaped support arm are made of black metal (wrought iron look).
• Glass shade. The right-hand branch has a frosted, finely polished spherical glass shade and a transparent, narrow glass cylinder (lamp cylinder).
• Function. There is a cord switch on the brown wire leading out of the base, which is typical of a retro or vintage piece from the second half of the 20th century (typically the 1960s–1980s).
It is in absolutely flawless condition, it works perfectly.
We can post it carefully packaged, in an insured, registered package.
