Late 19th Century French Renissance Revival Hand Carved Walnut Floor Lamp
About the Item
The top and bottom of the stained glass shade are embroidered with an anthemion frieze trim. The turned center post terminates with a base having scrolling garlands of foliage onto ornate gothic feet. It can go in any room that needs a bit of nostalgia and intrigue.
The carvings on the walnut are exceptional and the patina gives the walnut a rich color. It has been recently waxed.
This lamp has been rewired to meet US electrical standards. It takes three base light bulbs. Each light bulb can use up to a maximum of 60 watts. We recommend using LED lights because they help preserve antique fixtures longer. The electrical wire is 8 feet long and has an on/off switch. As a preference, you can use all three sockets or only one
Since the glass panes that make up the shade are handmade and not identical, each pane is marked with a number that corresponds to the slot it fits. The panes slide in and out of the slots at the top. If you need to remove the panes to change the light or move the lamp, tape a number of the slots on the piece of glass to avoid confusion about where they fit. The only inconspicuous flaw is on pane number three. Pane number three has a tiny hairline fracture that is intact and inconspicuous unless it is pointed out (see image).

- Early 19th Century English Regency Greek Revival Gilt Carving of a SphinxLocated in Chicago, ILFrom the 1700s through the early 1800s, European aristocrats developed a fascination with ancient Egyptian culture and design that culminated in a full Egyptian Revival. Prominent figures such as Marie Antoinette and Napoleon Bonaparte commissioned rooms decorated with Egyptian motifs. This cultural moment reflects a fascination with a sophisticated civilization of great artists and pharaohs. The Regency era possessed very little knowledge of the Great Pyramids or hieroglyphics, a quality that lent Egyptian art interpretation a compelling air of mystique. This English Regency period gilt carving depicts a popular figure of borrowed Egyptian motif: the Sphinx. Recognized among educated circles as a symbol of brilliance in the ancient past, the Sphinx was well-known as a mythological creature who destroys those who failed to answer her riddle. Such a piece as this, excellent in detail and craftsmanship, may have once graced the mantle of a gentleman’s study or been exchanged as a gift between British scholars. The beautiful gold surface has been achieved by an artful combination of gilt and gesso; the art enthusiast will appreciate the intricate texture realized in the carving’s hair and tail as well as the delicate detailing of the saddle. Borrowing from the Egyptians, the Greeks had their own interpretation of the Sphinx. Greek mythology chronicled the Sphinx as being the daughter of Orthous and Chimera or Laius and attributed the riddles, which she proposed, as having been taught to her by the Muses. Crowned with a Grecian diadem and having a refined expression, she evokes an ancient yet reserved intellect. For the modern-day enthusiast of classical Greek art...Category
