Wonderful Early 1900s Bronze and Marble Table / Desk Lamp with Faun Sculptures

About the Item

Wonderfully handcrafted antique table or desk lamp for a unique ambiance. If you are looking for a rare, beautiful design and top quality hand-crafted table lamp then this remarkable specimen could be ideal to grace your living space. The artisan metal worker who handcrafted this fine quality and detailed antique lamp truly did a great job. Mind you, every single bronze arm, pillar, faun, finial, guirlande etc first had to have been sculptured out of clay (or another material) before a mold could have been made and before the boiling bronze could have been cast. Especially the detailed fauns, the long 'legs' with hooves and the guirlandes would have been extremely time consuming and challenging to create. From all the handcrafted parts that, together, make this table lamp then molds would have to be made. All the molds must then be filled with, in this case, liquid bronze. After the hardening of the bronze and removal from the molds, all the surplus material from the castings must be removed and all pieces would have been either gilt or patinated. Finally all pieces must be fitted together and around the marble base through welding and by drilling screwthreads etc. I am sure you will understand why they don't make top quality workmanship table lamps like this anymore. It would cost a fortune. When looking at this work-of-art lamp with this knowledge in mind, it makes this antique even more impressive and interesting. Again great value for money. Also, because perfect packing and worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 to 6 days are free. Mind you, this rare antique lamp will be rewired to the highest standard for safe and immediate usage, wherever you live and you will be able to use your regular bulbs. Measures: Maximum height x diameter: 18 x 8 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish yet practical and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again).
