Pair of Brass Sputnik Table Lamps
$3,500per item

About
One of my favorite lamps. I love the atomic mace-like sputnik starburst ball of spikes seeming to hover above the crisp round brass conical base.
It is unclear who originally made it. Some say Laurel Lamp Mfg. Co. Others say Stiffel.
My only grievance with the original is that the cone is not real brass; it is cast aluminum with a brass finish which is prone to wear off and show unsightly blotches of the underlying silver metal.
We decided to re-create it in solid brass.
Ta dah!
Can you tell which one is the original and which two are the Beyond Gorgeosity re-creation?
Look closely and you may notice that the cone on the far right lamp is just imperceptibly larger than the other two. Approximately 3% larger.
That is because around 3% is lost during the molding and casting process.
The lamps on the left and middle are BG Galleries production. Solid brass head to toe.
We can also do these in bronze, nickel plated brass, copper or polished aluminum. Custom patinas also available.
Shown with single standard Edison socket uplighter but we can fit with pull-chain swivel double sockets in matching finish with shade riser and ball finial.
Price shown is for one lamp. Minimum order quantity 2.
26 inches high to top of milk glass reflector; 22.5 inches high to top of socket cup; 5 inches diameter.
Depending upon your order, lead time is typically 3-4 weeks.
Black drum shades for display only.
