1910 Edwardian Bronze & Marble Corinthian lamp original Deco Opaline flame shade

C-1910

"Beautiful classic style with bags of character, Would look very impressive on a large desk in a grand study; akin to those seen in period dramas."
• Sitting on a large, six -stepped cast bronze base with Roman leaf cornice

• Original serial numbered heavy cast Iron stabilizer base plate

• Original, Heavy Corinthian column with large abacus, detailed capital in caulicolous & acanthus leaves, a Roman Garland base, and a heavy natural veined marble shaft

• Very decorative all bronze support neck & collar carrying the original early 1900s switched bayonet cap fit bulb holder

• Very large Bronze / Brass gallery with original thumb bolts

• Sitting in the large gallery is a huge original French Art Deco mouth-blown Opaline "Vianne" glass flame shade with original label.

• Original 1920s heavy three round pin patented Bakelite fully functioning plug
