Signed Gaspar Mascagni Alabaster Figural Lamp, Italian, c. 1900

About the Item

Rare antique Italian alabaster figural lamp signed by sculptor Gaspar Mascagni, circa early 20th century. This hand-carved neoclassical sculpture lamp features a seated maiden in flowing robes with intricate detail, softly illuminated by a domed alabaster globe. The translucent alabaster shade creates a warm, ambient glow when lit. A stunning example of Italian Art Nouveau/Art Deco crossover lighting, this piece exemplifies traditional Florentine craftsmanship and early electric-era sculpture lighting. Crafted in soft ivory-toned alabaster, the lamp stands approximately 34 inches tall. The figure is seated on a rock-form base with a visible artisan’s chisel work, bearing the signature “G Mascagni” incised on the rear. The lamp base shows natural wear consistent with age, including a small chip and a fine hairline on the shade. Original wiring should be updated for modern safety. This lamp is ideal for collectors of antique lighting, sculpture lamps, Italian decorative arts, and early 20th-century neoclassical décor.
