Lot 528: A Victorian Style Cast Metal and Decorated Milk Glass Table Lamp
An ornate Victorian style table lamp, converted for electrical use from a previous paraffin or oil lamp. The piece features a bulbous white milk glass font decorated with transfer-printed floral sprays in shades of yellow, orange, and brown. The font is mounted upon a decorative cast metal base with a dark patinated finish, featuring Rococo style scrolling acanthus leaf and shell motifs. The top of the lamp is fitted with a metal gallery designed to support a glass shade and chimney. It has been converted to electricity with a bayonet bulb socket and is wired with a gold-tone flex terminating in a modern white UK 3-pin plug. No maker marks or factory stamps are visible on the base or body.
