About the Item

A Midcentury hand-carved wooden table lamp depicting a horse. Hand-carved with expressive detail, this mid-20th-century continental table lamp brings movement and artistry into any interior. The sculpted horse, poised in a dynamic prancing stance, showcases the craftsmanship of the period, with intricate carving that captures the texture of its flowing mane and muscular form. A warm patina enhances the depth of the wood, emphasizing its organic character. Elevated on a tiered circular base (measuring 11" diameter), the lamp has a balanced presence, making it a statement piece whether illuminated or not. Rewired for the USA, the lamp retains its vintage appeal while meeting modern electrical standards. Twin pull-chain sockets provide functional versatility, allowing for adjustable lighting to suit different moods and settings. The upward-curving wooden support subtly offsets the sculptural base, ensuring the horse remains the focal point while maintaining a practical structure. Perfect for a study, library, or living room, this lamp adds warmth and visual interest. Pair it with a simple linen or parchment shade to highlight its sculptural quality, or contrast with a bold fabric to introduce a contemporary twist. Ideal for equestrian enthusiasts or lovers of hand-crafted European design, this lamp makes a striking addition to an antique desk, side table, or console. Whether in a rustic setting or an eclectic mix of styles, its presence is both artistic and functional, blending sculptural elegance with ambient illumination.
