Description
An Impressive Pair of Patinated and Gilt Bronze Figural Lamps
Cast and hand-chased from patinated and fire-gilt bronze, the lamps modelled with standing figures of Medieval kings, in contrapposto, the crowned warriors wearing chainmail, resting on their broadswords and an axe swaying from the hip, the cut-glass reservoirs for the lamps rising behind the figures; all supported on waisted circular bases with oak-and-acorn collars above octagonal plinths.
French, circa 1880
