Table lamp - Bronze, Brass - Lovely French Bouillotte

French Bouillotte lamp with its original painted gold maroon tole shade. Bouillotte is a card game that became popular in France during the 18th & 19th centuries. For light, they would use a bouillotte lamp. This particular one is brass with 3 candelabra arms with faux wax candle covers. As the candles would burn down, one would use a key, where the shade connects the middle shaft, to lower the shade as the candles burned down. Allowing the players to be free of glare. Photos are part of the description. Will be sent with safe packaging.
