PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
This floor reading lamp features a fluted gilt brass shaft topped with a spinning-top finial, resting on a stepped circular base. The articulated double-pivot arm, fixed beneath the top of the shaft, allows the light source to be directed as required. The conical black shade with a gilt interior diffuses a warm and concentrated light.
This model of reading lamp with an articulated arm fits within the Neoclassical tradition of the library light fitting, brought back into fashion in the 1970s by the French houses specialising in gilt brass, in the spirit of the productions of Maison Jansen.
Condition report: Good general condition. Brass with a fine even gilt patina, shade in good presentation condition. An elegant reading lamp, ideal beside a reading chair or a sofa.
