Pair of Sculptural White Ceramic Lamps, Elephants, Italy, Circa 1970
About the Item
We are pleased to present a magnificent pair of sculptural white ceramic lamps, made in Italy, dating from the second half of the 20th century (around 1970).
These rare pieces, both elegant and artistic, evoke an Orientalist theme and stand out for their striking representation of elephants, symbols of majesty and wisdom.
Features:
Sculptural Design:
Each lamp takes the form of a majestic elephant, finely modeled in detailed white ceramic, both sober and expressive.
The sculptural aspect of these pieces allows them to be appreciated from different angles, offering both a work of art and a functional object.
The ceramic treatment is of great quality, with clean lines and soft curves that make these lamps even more interesting as decorative elements, adding a touch of originality and sophistication to any space.
Orientalist and Exotic Theme:
The choice of subject, elephants, is not incidental.
A symbol of wisdom, greatness, and nobility in many cultures, the elephant brings a refined Oriental touch to the set.
This Orientalist inspiration fits perfectly within the taste of the 1970s, when decorative arts were influenced by exotic motifs and animal representations.
Versatile Use:
These lamps will complement both classical and modern décor.
They are ideal for placing on a side table, console, or nightstand, providing a soft and calming light while subtly decorating the space.
Condition:
The lamps are in very good condition.
The electrical wiring has been carefully checked by our workshop to ensure safe use.
The slight color variation between the two elephants is not a defect but rather a testament to the authenticity of the artisanal work and the unique character of each piece.
Origin:
Made in Italy in the 1970s, these lamps are a true testament to the craftsmanship of the time, combining traditional know-how with bourgeois taste.
Dimensions:
Height: 38 cm
Width: 15 cm
Depth: 38 cm
