Antique 19th Century Italian Renaissance Brass Floor Lantern Lamp, England (37")
SOLD $1,471.67 Sold: Sep 4, 2024 on eBayOriginal Listing Description
I have for sale a rare pair of antique Victorian Era brass European floor lamps.Overall, both lamps are in very good condition. There's some tarnish to the brass, but everything is pretty minimal, and all the glass panels are present for the lantern. One of the lanterns has an extra glass panel, but I am thinking the glass is not original. It is the same bubbled textured style, but do not believe they are original, but I could be wrong. Also, each lantern is stamped England under the latched lid, with a crown finial on the top. The brass on the lantern has a repousse design and impressed flowers all throughout the edges.I found an example of this exact style with the crown finial that was listed as being made in Italy, but both of my pieces are stamped England. I am wondering if that person is wrong, and these are made in England, but with an Italian Renaissance Revival design. Both of the lamps are in good working order. However, each lamp has a 1920's / 1930's electrical head, so you may want someone more experienced to look over it before constant use. I have provided over (130) enlarged photos below to give you a very thorough view of this rare lamp set.Size: 37" (Approx. Total Height) 14" (Approx. Total Lantern Height w/ Finial) Date: 1880's / 1890'sIf you have any questions, and/or need more photos, please send me a message.Thank You (Condition: Pre-Owned)
