About the Item

Dramatic, beautifully finished and finely detailed, this very rare pair of bronze lamp bases depict skyscraper buildings, each featuring multiple setbacks in the Classic Art Deco manner, all rising above a multi-staged plinth with cascades of steps descending below. Perhaps sculpted and cast to commemorate a structure that was proposed in the 1930s, this pair survives as a unique testament to the soaring ambition and fine craftsmanship of another era. Possibly Canadian in origin. (Height dimension includes bronze finial).

Art Deco Skyscraper Garniture Set with Candlesticks, Carved Limestone

The centerpiece is clearly inspired by Art Deco skyscrapers and monuments, with stepped-back sides and monumental doorway that suggest it could have served as a small-scale model for a fully-realized structure. The side elements have carved recesses to hold candles. The sculptor was clearly a master of his trade, and used the finest Indiana limestone...
