Figural Table Lamp w/ Gilt-Metal Putto and Fringed Pagoda Shade - 19¼"

This delightful small table lamp is formed around a gilt-metal putto dressed in antique style, standing on a rectangular green marble base, his arm raised as if balancing the light above his head. The figure is finely modeled, with draped clothing and a dynamic posture, from the turned head to the raised arm, giving the lamp a lively silhouette with a subtle theatrical note. This subtle theatricality is further emphasized by the dramatic pagoda shade, with its two tones of dusky pink, gold braid, long fringe and corner tassels. The association of the lively putto and the whimsical shade gives the piece plenty of personality and charm.
