About the Item
Pair of Italian Hand-Carved Cherub Table Lamps – Gilded Wood, circa 1940
A striking and atmospheric pair of Italian table lamps, each featuring a hand-carved baroque cherub in a kneeling pose, holding a gilded cornucopia-shaped base. These sculptural figures are crafted from wood and richly gilded, with a dark patina that enhances their expressive features and classical detailing.
