About the Item

Fine rare antique Italian alabaster lamp depicting a beautiful young girl sitting on a rock , playing with a kitty cat. The shade is a 2-piece globe, also made of alabaster. This Circa 1920 hand-carved alabaster lamp serves as both an art form as well as being a functional light source. It has been entirely made from alabaster, a rock that is popular with carvers, due to its softness. The lamp depicts a young girl sitting on a nicely carved rock structure playing with a kitty cat. The alabaster lamp shade resembles a lamp post with a trim of tassels around the bowl. Due to the soft white coloring and open top, the lamp has a light gentle glow. Overall, this is a spectacular work of art. The carver has taken careful precision to sculpt the details such as the texture of her hair, and even the realistic lamp post. It would be a perfect piece for any table, office, or library. Signed on the back.

Signed Gaspar Mascagni Alabaster Figural Lamp, Italian, c. 1900
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Rare antique Italian alabaster figural lamp signed by sculptor Gaspar Mascagni, circa early 20th century. This hand-carved neoclassical sculpture lamp features a seated maiden in flowing robes with intricate detail, softly illuminated by a domed alabaster globe. The translucent alabaster shade creates a warm, ambient glow when lit. A stunning example of Italian Art Nouveau/Art Deco crossover lighting, this piece exemplifies traditional Florentine craftsmanship and early electric-era sculpture lighting. Crafted in soft ivory-toned alabaster, the lamp stands approximately 34 inches tall. The figure is seated on a rock-form base with a visible artisan’s chisel work, bearing the signature “G Mascagni” incised on the rear. The lamp base shows natural wear consistent with age, including a small chip and a fine hairline on the shade. Original wiring should be updated for modern safety. This lamp is ideal for collectors of antique lighting, sculpture lamps, Italian decorative arts, and early 20th-century neoclassical décor.
