Brass swans table lamp

A table lamp in the taste of the firm maison jansen, depicting two courting swans. Each swan is elegantly produced from patinated brass, with one slightly stretching its neck upwards. The organic curved lines of each bird sit atop an octagonal, ebony lacquered base. From this base protrudes a brass s-bend pole, which houses the light bulb. A gorgeous pagoda shade, made of laminated hard paper and also in a chic ebony, completes the piece. Please note that although the lamp base is in a good condition, there is some wear on one side of the pagoda shade, with a slight peeling of the laminate – to be expected given the age of this piece. The lamp is currently wired for eu plug sockets, but we can change this if required depending on the buyer’s location. This lamp takes e27 screw light bulbs. Place of origin: france.
