Louis XVI Style Gilt Bronze Bouillotte Lamp with Three Lights

This gilded Louis XVI style bouillotte lamp features three lights and a green lampshade. The base, classically shaped like a wide bowl, is particularly ornate. It is raised to collect wax when actual candles were still used. Its polished interior tapers towards a sculpted element that forms the base of its oval central section. Above, a double-bulged foot terminates in a hemispherical element. This element supports the three candlestick arms and a slender stem holding the lampshade, which ends in a decorative ring. *** Perfect condition ****** Height: 55 cm ***.
