Neoclassical Lighting

NEOCLASSICAL STYLE

Neoclassical design emerged in Europe in the 1750s, as the Age of Enlightenment reached full flower. Neoclassical furniture took its cues from the styles of ancient Rome and Athens: symmetrical, ordered, dignified forms with such details as tapered and fluted chair and table legs, backrest finials and scrolled arms.

Over a period of some 20 years, first in France and later in Britain, neoclassical design — also known as Louis XVI, or Louis Seize — would supersede the lithe and curvaceous Rococo or Louis XV style.

The first half of the 18th century had seen a rebirth of interest in classical antiquity. The "Grand Tour" of Europe, codified as a part of the proper education of a patrician gentleman, included an extended visit to Rome. Some ventured further, to sketch the ruins of ancient Greece. These drawings and others — particularly those derived from the surprising and rich archaeological discoveries in the 1730s and ’40s at the sites of the Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum — caused great excitement among intellectuals and aesthetes alike.

Neoclassical furniture is meant to reflect both grace and power. The overall appearance of neoclassical chairs, tables and cabinetry is strong and rectilinear. These pieces are, in effect, classical architecture in miniature: chair and table legs are shaped like columns; cabinets are constructed with elements that mirror friezes and pediments.

Yet neoclassicism is enlivened by gilt and silver leaf, marquetry, and carved and applied ornamental motifs based on Greek and Roman sculpture: acanthus leaves, garlands, laurel wreaths, sheaves of arrow, medallions and chair splats are carved in the shapes of lyres and urns. Ormolu — or elaborate bronze gilding — was essential to French design in the 18th and 19th centuries as a cornerstone of the neoclassical and Empire styles.

As you can see from the furniture on these pages, there is a bit of whimsy in such stately pieces — a touch of lightness that will always keep neoclassicism fresh.

Late 19th Century Russian Brass Samovar Lamp

Late 19th Century Russian Brass Samovar Lamp

Located in Atlanta, GA

A remarkable fusion of history and function, this late 19th-century Russian brass samovar has been masterfully repurposed into a striking table lamp. Originally crafted as a traditional Russian tea urn, this piece bears intricate engravings, imperial hallmarks, and a beautifully aged patina, highlighting its authenticity and historical significance. The body of the samovar is adorned with elaborate Russian inscriptions and award medallions, indicating its prestigious origin. The markings reference Vasily Stepanovich Batashov, a renowned samovar manufacturer from Tula, Russia, active in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The engravings include the Russian Imperial Double-Headed Eagle, a hallmark of high-quality craftsmanship, along with various medallions commemorating international exhibitions, dating as early as 1870 and 1883. This brass samovar features ornate scrolled handles, a pierced base for ventilation, and a decorative spigot with a foliate key, all indicative of Tsarist-era Russian metalwork. The square-footed base adds to its stability, while the polished brass surface showcases a warm patina, preserving its aged character. This historically significant and beautifully repurposed piece makes an exquisite addition to eclectic, classical, or antique-inspired interiors. Whether used as a statement lighting piece or admired for its rich cultural heritage, this samovar lamp...
