Pair of Cast Gilt Gargoyle Tower Bronze or Brass Table Lamps with Shades

About the Item

Gold and gargoyles combine to create an elegant lighting opportunity in this pair of lamps made in Canada. The French Rococo influence is apparent in the gilded cast design and the tower silhouette with intricate bronze gilt work. Perhaps most impressive is the tripod base that is decked out with gargoyles with up-stretched wings. on duty, six of them, at the base of the lamps. This is a wonderful auction acquisition and there is only one pair. Each lamp with hexagonal-section column with stylized palm-tree treatment, on shaped tripod bases. Surmounted by a single harp with flaring box shades with chamfered corners. The lamps are so stylized with tripod feet that are shaped like little irons or sabots, and that is where the gargoyles are crouching. There is a beautiful foliate design all over the body of the lamp and at the neck under the socket arranged in a circle like a crown. The finials are original. Wonderful lamps that are 30 inches tall.
