Pair of two whimsical ceramic swan sculptural table lamps. Each ceramic lamp is identical and showcases a swan, in repose, looking downward with its wings outstretched and displayed.

Each lamp is affixed to a ceramic base in the same hue and glaze. How We Would Style Them: A dramatic pair such as these will add whimsy in any room.

And crisp white bedding and sheets in a matching pattern to the chintz wallpaper. Caprani flush mount lighting at the ceiling, and a fringe ottoman and matching chair at the side. A room fit for a little prince or princess. Finally, a Palm Springs or Hollywood Regency Style home. In a foyer or dining room, we see this pair placed aptly on a brightly colored...
