Pair of Antique Carved Conch Shell Accent Table Lamps with Mythological Motif
About the Item
These antique carved shell accent lamps are unsigned, but presumed to have originated from Italy and dating to approximately 1920 and done in a Renaissance Revival style. The lights are natural conch style shells which have been elaborately hand-carved with mythological vignettes. The carved shells are mounted with threaded cast and cold-painted tripod bases, and the legs are done to resemble stylized griffins. The cold-painted bases are done in a deep green which gives the appearance of patinated bronze. The wiring on one lamp is quite brittle and should be replaced, but both are working.
