AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
An exceptional, large-scale pair of mid-century modern table lamps in the signature Hollywood Regency architectural style from the 1970s. These striking, skyscraper-inspired columns feature a sophisticated bi-color combination of polished gilt brass and contrasting bright chrome-plated metal.
The structural frames consist of nested, interlocking geometric metal tiers that enclose a central square pillar, creating beautiful reflections when illuminated. Each lamp is equipped with a premium double-socket fitting and dual independent pull-chain switches, allowing for versatile lighting adjustments. The lamps are paired with elegant, contemporary drum shades in a rich faux-leather/mottled brown. Not original to the lamps but adequate and foldable for transportation.
