Vintage Louis XVI Style Brass Bouillotte Lamp
Vintage Louis XVI Style Brass Bouillotte Lamp
Couldn't load pickup availability
Two brass candle arms curve out from a central column here, each capped with a faux candle and rising toward the shade, in the manner of the old French bouillotte lamps once set on card tables. The column wears a cast neoclassical swag, an urn hung with floral garlands and drapery, which is the detail that lifts it above the plainer versions of this form. It reads as a reading or side-table light for a traditional or French-country room, and it has been rewired for safe modern use.
The lamp is in good vintage condition and has been rewired, with a new cord and an inline switch shown in the photographs. The brass has been polished and shows light handling wear consistent with age, with no dents or splits noted. The two faux candle sleeves over the sockets are cracked. They are a decorative cover only and are inexpensive to replace if you prefer a fresh look. The oval shade is included and is in good condition, with light wear consistent with age. The base interior shows the expected oxidation and the mounting hardware for the socket cluster. As with any vintage lighting, AMD strongly recommends having the piece inspected and, if needed, rewired by a licensed electrician before use; it is sold as a decorative item and Austyn Marie Design is not responsible or liable for any malfunction, damage, or injury resulting from its use or electrical operation. Please review all photographs closely, as they form part of this description.

Important Info About Antique & Vintage
Every antique and vintage item we carry has lived a life before arriving in your home. These are not factory-made products. They are objects with history, character, and the marks of time.
Age-appropriate wear, patina, minor imperfections, and signs of previous use or repair are inherent to antique and vintage items and are not considered defects. These characteristics are part of what makes each piece unique and are often what give it its beauty and value.
We describe the condition of each piece as accurately as possible in the listing. If you have specific questions about a piece before purchasing, please reach out. We are always happy to provide additional photos or details.
Colors may appear slightly different on screen due to monitor settings and photography lighting. We do our best to represent each item accurately.
Descriptions, dates, attributions, materials, and measurements are provided in good faith and reflect our best assessment based on research, physical examination, and the information available to us. Antique and vintage pieces often carry incomplete or unverifiable histories. Where a detail is an assessment rather than a confirmed fact, it is identified as such. Measurements are approximate. All items are sold as-is, with the photographs and condition report governing.
