A true statement of 19th-century grandeur, this magnificent 120cm exhibition-scale standard lamp is a rare survivor of the Belle Époque. It features a masterfully cast gilt bronze winged cherub base, poised on a solid onyx pedestal, supporting a vibrant, hand-blown cranberry glass reservoir.
The exquisite contrast between the warm golden bronze and the deep ruby tones of the opalescent glass creates a breathtaking focal point for any high-end interior. Whether kept in its original oil-burning state or professionally converted to electric, this lamp is an investment-grade piece for serious collectors of French and Victorian art.
