18th-century Carved Wooden Table Lamp With Marble-painted Base

This extraordinary 18th-century table lamp is an authentic masterpiece of decorative art, combining elegance, symbolism, and outstanding craftsmanship. From the very first glance, it impresses with its commanding presence and the richness of its details, making it a prestigious focal point in any interior.

The base is finely carved in wood and painted to imitate marble, featuring realistic veining and refined gilded details that enhance its three-dimensional quality. At the center emerges a delicate cherub’s head, a typical 18th-century iconography symbolizing purity and protection, sculpted with remarkable skill and artistic sensitivity. This element gives the lamp significant historical and decorative value.

The lampshade, also original to the 18th century, is made of black and gold silk and enriched with exquisite embroidery in fine pure gold thread. The depicted scene, a pelican feeding its young, is rich in symbolic meaning and complemented by elegant floral decorations, creating a refined interplay of light and texture.

Its impressive dimensions — base height 77 cm, lampshade height 53 cm (48 × 48 cm), total height 130 cm — make this lamp ideal for prestigious interiors, grand studies, or important art collections. A rare and valuable piece destined to appreciate over time.
