Large (75 cm high) solid bronze lamp with a nuanced brown patina. Its tripod base features scrolled and protruding feet, typical of late 19th-century neo-Gothic forms. The finely turned and balanced stem is reminiscent of antique church or chapel candlesticks.
A decorative piece with a sculptural character, heavy and stable, it can accommodate a large cylindrical lampshade for a monumental effect, as shown. ________________________________________
