Pair Of Oil Lamps Made Of Patinated Metal And Gilded Bronze – 19th Century

An elegant pair of 19th-century oil lamps, made of metal with a brown patina and gilded bronze. They feature an architectural silhouette, consisting of an ovoid reservoir topped by a long, slender shaft, embellished with finely chased gilded bronze mounts. The coiled side handles, ornamental friezes, and richly decorated quadrangular bases highlight the decorative quality of this set.

The contrast between the metal’s dark patina and the gilded ornaments highlights the refinement of their craftsmanship. Originally designed for kerosene lighting, these lamps have been converted to electricity, allowing them to serve as light sources once again while retaining their antique character.

A decorative pair with a striking presence, ideal for adorning a console table, sideboard, or mantelpiece in a classic interior.

They come with their sockets.
