Antique French Brass Table Lamp, Louis XVI Revival
Couldn't load pickup availability
A petite French brass table lamp in the Louis XVI Revival manner, with a tapered fluted column rising from a four-lobed scrolled foot. The proportions are what sold me on it. At under ten inches, this is a true bedside or vanity lamp, sized for the small spaces French apartments were actually built around. The candle-form socket is a direct holdover from the candlesticks these lamps replaced when French homes electrified between the wars, and the bayonet fitting is the period-correct French standard. Newly rewired to US specifications using the original socket.
The lamp is in good antique condition with honest age-appropriate wear. The brass surfaces show the expected mellowing of a piece nearing one hundred years old, with a soft copper patina across the column and warmer gilt tones across the fluted collar and scrolled base. The two-toned finish is intact throughout with no significant losses or polishing damage. The original B22 bayonet socket has been retained and functions correctly. The lamp has been professionally rewired to US standards with a new cord, plug, and inline switch, and is in proper working order. The base sits firmly without wobble. No structural issues, no repairs, no replacements beyond the wiring components.
