About the Item

This is a classic desk or table lamp, handmade by Christopher Wray, London England. The lamp has a classic traditional design in the Art Nouveau style. The heavy circular pedestal base supports a brass column into which a curved tubular arm sits, the arm being able to rotate in the column for left to right positioning. The lamp fitting is held by a boss which pivots on the end of the arm, locked in position with a wing nut, thus allowing the lamp to be angled and poised as required. The shade is moulded glass. This lamp is in the Art Nouveau style but was made in the late 1960s.

Art Deco Lady Figurine Table Lamp Bronze Sculpture, French circa 1930
Located in Lincoln, Lincolnshire
This is a stunning figurine table lamp of a nude lady bronze Figurine sculpture made in France, circa 1930. The figurine is heavy and made of bronze metal with good detail. It has been cold painted with a green colour which has worn away in places, showing a patinated bronze colour beneath. The lady is stood on a round ball above a shaped shell like base. The figure is holding the lamp above her head with the electric cable running into the base and vertically up her back to the lamp fitting above. A coloured spherical glass shade firmly sits in the dished support. The light is currently fitted with a small bayonet fitting, the whole electrical fitting having been PAT tested for safety compliance in the UK. The fitting could easily be modified to suit the electricity supply of the country where it might be used . This piece is typical of the Art Deco aesthetic, with the sleek lines of the nude girl figure holding the globe light above. The lamp is in full working order. This is a substantial heavy piece weighing about 2.5Kg unpacked. Overall a beautiful original Art Deco Lady Figurine...
