About the Item

Wonderful French Art Deco Tripod Floor Lamp In Gilt Bronze by Mason Ramsay French Circa 1940 Although of relatively conventional form, what makes this lamp so interesting is the twisted thread decoration utilised throughout the piece. This decoration is very reminiscent of a sculptor's way of indicating drapery and this piece is certainly extremely sculptural in its form and design. The lamp is beautifully proportioned and is eye catching without overwhelming the space in which it is placed-in other words it is a perfect example of high quality functional design. It has a twin lighting system having switching for an uplighter and conventional lighting. Maison Ramsay was founded in the early 20th century but reached the peak of its success between c.1940 and c.1970. The firm is particularly associated with gilded metal work, utilising iron, bronze, steel and brass in its creations. The firm's products are highly sought-after today by an audience of collectors and decorators and we are delighted to be able to offer this fine example of the company's work to our clients.

Exceptional Pair of French Late Empire Gilt-bronze Candelabra Attributed to Pier
By Pierre-Philippe Thomire
Located in Benington, Herts
A pair of exceptionally elegant and important late Empire five-light figural candelabra ‘A la Victoire’ in gilt-bronze, attributed to Pierre-Philippe Thomire, after a design by Charles Percier. Imposing size at 81cm in height. French Paris c.1820 Superbly cast, in the Neo-Classical style, the five scrolling foliate candle branches enclosing central sconces issuing from a circular wreath supported by the winged figure of Victory (Nike), wearing diaphanous robes gathered by a sash above a long underskirt splaying out from above her ankles, with beautifully feathered wings flowing behind her as she looks straight ahead. Each figure standing on one foot, the other bent, resting on a plain sphere over a reeded palmette-cast baluster pedestal raised on square plinth. Wonderful colour and patina, pierced for electricity, old inventory label to the underside. We are delighted to have been able to acquire these important candelabra as rarely does one get the opportunity to purchase items by P P Thomire...
