Carved Onyx Lamp – Pre-Columbian/Aztec Style – Vintage. A beautiful vintage lamp with a hand-carved base made from genuine onyx. The onyx displays stunning natural veining in honey, beige, and white tones, with a beautiful translucency typical of this semi-precious stone. The sculpture depicts a stylized figure of pre-Columbian inspiration (Aztec/Mayan style), seated with crossed arms and wearing a geometric headdress. This handcrafted piece was carved from a single block of onyx and then mounted as a lamp. Specifications: Base height: 30.5 cm. Total height including socket: approximately 50 cm. • Material: Genuine onyx. • Style: Pre-Columbian/Mexican. • Period: 1970s–1990s. • Working wiring. • Lampshade not included. Condition: Good overall condition. A visible glue line on the base (typical of onyx objects) does not affect its sturdiness. Weight of the base: 3.490 kg.
