Re-Run Sunday Gold & Silver, Antiques & Collectables (14% Buyers Commission)
A large decorative table lamp in the Art Nouveau style, featuring a central patinated metal figure of a woman in classical diaphanous robes accompanied by two winged putti. The figure holds a branching foliate stem that bifurcates into two light arms, each fitted with a frosted glass shade. The shades are of flared lily form, featuring a moulded quilted texture and ruffled rims. The sculpture is raised on a circular tiered base with a textured, foliate-decorated top surface. The lamp is constructed from patinated metal, possibly spelter, with a dark brown finish and greenish accents in the recesses. This design is frequently identified in the trade as the Baroness model. The piece is fitted with a modern black electrical cable, an inline switch, and a standard UK three-pin plug.
Condition report:
The lamp shows general surface wear and rubbing to the patina, particularly on the raised edges of the figures and base, consistent with age and handling. The frosted glass shades appear to be in good condition with no visible chips or cracks. The electrical wiring is modern, however, it is recommended that the item be tested by a qualified electrician before use.
