Some parts are maintained by screws and nuts filed by hand with care. The set has a beautiful old patina. The presence of the double-headed eagle suggests that it is a wall lamp from Russia or Germany, but perhaps also from Serbia or Austria. The wall lamp is not flat but slightly curved to be positioned on a concave section of wall, such as that of a tower or a church niche. The 2 side columns are reminiscent of the 17th century. 335x195x160mm
