French Onyx and Cloisonne Banquet Lamp

About the Item

This tall lamp is remarkable for its use of onyx and cloisonne. The onyx is from Algeria and the cloisonne is actually French in the style of the Chinese. The lead crystal reservoir is handcut with ovals; the capital is cloisonne as is the stepped base. Typically these lamps are silver or plated and glass. This one is unique in our experience for its use of materials and the high quality of the workmanship.
