Large Marble Column Table Lamps

About the Item

Pair of large marble column table lamps. 20th century. Why we like them This is an absolutely gorgeous pair of classical-style columns of imposing scale, beautifully embellished with exquisite architectural details, according to Renaissance designs. These columns represent the Tuscan order of architecture (Latin Ordo Tuscanicus or Ordo Tuscanus, with the meaning of Etruscan order) – one of the two classical orders developed by the Romans, the other being the composite order. It is influenced by the Greek Doric order, but with un-fluted columns and a simpler entablature with no triglyphs or guttae. While relatively simple, columns with round capitals had been part of the vernacular architecture of Italy and much of Europe since at least Etruscans. The Tuscan order illustrated in Regola delli cinqve ordini d'architettvra (1563), by Jacopo Barozzi da Vignola (see images) Dimensions: Height (to the top of the bulb holder): 71 cm / 28" Width (base): 20 cm / 7.9" Depth (base): 20 cm / 7.9"

Early 20th Century Green Marble and Gilt Bronze Table Lamp
Located in Richmond, London
A superb quality gilt bronze mounted urn in Verde Antico marble, now fitted as a table lamp. France or Italy, late 19th – early 20th century. Why we like it This table lamp is crafted from rare Verde Antico marble, quarried in Larissa, Thessaly, Greece. Known for its deep green color and distinct white and black veining, this marble is valued among collectors and designers for its unique character and scarcity. The stone is paired with finely cast gilt bronze mounts that provide a pleasing contrast and add subtle elegance to the piece. Verde Antico marble is considered rare and historically significant. The Corsi Collection of Decorative Stones at Oxford University Museum of Natural History catalogue entry 566. (143.2) reads: “Another of a lighter green, with white and more definite black markings. The two amazing tables in the Galleria degli Animali in the Vatican Museum are of this type. (Very rare).” Image attached to the listing. The Galleria degli Animali, or Hall of Animals, was created during the papacy of Pius VI (1775–1799) as a “stone zoo” of sorts, using ancient sculptures that were often restored and occasionally reimagined. This ambitious project brought together prominent artists of the 18th century, including Francesco Antonio Franzoni from Carrara. The artworks in this space reflect themes of nature and hunting, with coloured marbles chosen to suggest the textures and colours of animal fur, feathers, or to create eye-catching contrasts. See last two images in the listing. Combining Verde Antico marble with high-quality gilt bronze accents, this lamp is a distinctive piece that brings historical character and timeless appeal to any space. May be wired for any country. Lampshade not included. Height without shade: 53 cm / 21 in. Would you like to see more beautiful things from our collection?
