Bidspirit auction | An Art Nouveau Style Patinated


An Art Nouveau Style Patinated Metal Two-Light Figural Table Lamp - A large decorative table lamp in the Art Nouveau style, featuring a central patinated metal figure of a woman in classical diaphanous robes accompanied by two winged putti. The figure holds a branching foliate stem that bifurcates into two light arms, each fitted with a frosted glass shade. The shades are of flared lily form, featuring a moulded quilted texture and ruffled rims. The sculpture is raised on a circular tiered base with a textured, foliate-decorated top surface. The lamp is constructed from patinated metal, possibly spelter, with a dark brown finish and greenish accents in the recesses. This design is frequently identified in the trade as the Baroness model. The piece is fitted with a modern black electrical cable, an inline switch, and a standard UK three-pin plug.
