About the Item

Neoclassical Lamp – Ostrich Egg & Athenian Bronze Animal-Motif Mount, France, Circa 1900 An elegant and rare neoclassical-style lamp, crafted in France circa 1900. Its finely chiseled bronze mount takes the form of an antique-inspired Athenian tripod, adorned with refined animal motifs: three ram heads gracefully encircle a natural ostrich egg, creating a striking contrast between raw organic material and precious ornamentation. The wiring has been completely redone to meet modern safety standards. Dimensions: Height: 43 cm Diameter: 16 cm Condition: Good overall condition. Newly rewired. A unique decorative object, straddling the line between a cabinet of curiosities and a sculptural accent piece—perfect for a sophisticated interior.

Maison Charles Attributed Pair of Tall Ostrich Egg and Brass French Table Lamps
By Maison Charles et Fils
Located in Landau an der Isar, Bayern
Maison Charles attributed midcentury vintage pair of French gilt bronze neoclassical lamps centered on ostrich eggs. Stunning craftsmanship with beautifully cast brass elements, the palm leaf details above the powder blue eggs, the acorn final on the lampshade holder, the neoclassical style darting on the bands and legs and the cloven goat hoof feet which sit upon the solid cast brass base. These most beautifully opulent and decadent large table lamps are, unfortunately, not signed with the usual 'Charles - made in France' or 'Charles e fils' stamps. However, we do believe that these were made by Maison Charles based...
