This is a stunning matching pair of vintage Mid-Century Hollywood Regency style torchiere table lamps. They feature heavily detailed solid brass construction with a classic barley-twist column, beautifully cast acanthus leaves, and prominent acorn accents above a solid white marble/alabaster block base. Very heavy. Both lamps include white milk-glass torchiere diffuser shades. The lamps are unmarked, but likely were made by Stiffel or Rembrandt.
Both lamps work. The pair does need cleaning, and minor repairs. Professional re-wiring is recommended.
Item Details & Dimensions: Total Height: Approx. 23.5 inches from bottom of base to top of socket. Base Width: Approx. 6 inches square (notched corner design) Weight: Each lamp weighs a bit more than 12 lbs. Base Material: White Marble / Alabaster on a brass footing tier. One of the bases appears a bit whiter than the other. Shades: White milk glass patterned torchiere diffusers (the diffusers are the same size, but patterns do not match) Wiring: Features inline rotary cord switches and period-correct cords. Wiring does not match. Professional re-wiring recommended. SILK SHADE SHOWN IN PHOTO IS NOT INCLUDED.
Good vintage working condition but there are some issues:
- The brass components have a gorgeous, authentic aged patina with light surface wear appropriate for their age.
- The alabaster/marble bases are intact with no major cracks, but there are a few chips. Need cleaning. See photos.
- The glass diffuser shades are free of chips or visible cracks. Cords and inline switches function well.
- The barley-twist vine on one lamp has a break that can be repaired or just positioned so that it is barely visible. See photo.
- The two plastic sleeves under the light sockets do not match, and one has a crack.
- Felt on the bottom of one lamp is in poor condition. See photos.
