AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A beautiful, high-quality Italian antique table lamp, characterized by the harmonious combination of decorated porcelain and 800 Silver.
Key Features:
• Design: The base is made of quality Porcelain, hand-decorated with a delicate floral motif (likely forget-me-nots) in shades of blue and gray, giving it a classic, timeless appearance.
• Precious Materials: The finishes, stem, and base rest on precious metal in 800 Silver (as confirmed by the "800" hallmark stamped on the metal rim). The silver displays its natural antique patina, a sign of authenticity, and has not been polished to preserve its historical charm.
• Historical Provenance: The object bears the original label on the red velvet bottom, which certifies its sale at "L'ARGENTERIA - PIAZZA CAMPETTO, 7/6 - GENOVA" (The Silversmith's - Piazza Campetto, 7/6 - Genoa), a renowned and specialized retail point.
• Lampshade: The ensemble is completed by an elegant, frosted/etched glass lampshade shaped like an ampoule.
Technical Specifications:
• Total Height (H): 50 cm (Approx. 19.7 inches)
• Base Diameter: 14 cm (Approx. 5.5 inches)
• Total Weight: 850 grams (Approx. 1.87 lbs)
• Period: Estimated between the mid-20th century and subsequent era (to be verified with manufacturer's hallmarks).
Condition:
The lamp is in excellent conservative condition, consistent with its age. Electrical system is present and working. Please note: The 800 hallmark guarantees the silver content.
