Size: 43" tall. Shade 14" diameter x 19" tall. Base 6 1/4" square. Price: $575 Smoked crystal stacked on cast bronze, under a tall column of chocolate velvet. The shade is the first thing you notice. Straight-sided, dark as a good cellar, and velvet, so the light it gives back is warm rather than bright. Beneath it the stem does something quieter and stranger. A fluted bronze column drops into a beaded collar, then into two pieces of smoked crystal cut like jewellery, the upper one flat and octagonal, the lower one tapering to a point. They take whatever light is in the room and hold onto it, amber and grey at the same time. Below the crystal the bronze opens into acanthus leaves, the tips curling back the way real leaves do. That sits on a silvered socle, on a slab of black marble veined in white, on a square bronze plinth banded with a moulding you can feel under your thumb. Four materials, stacked, each one heavier than the last. Nothing about it is casual. At 43 inches it is not a small lamp and it should not pretend to be. Give it a console, a wide dresser, the far end of a sideboard, somewhere it can be the tallest thing in its corner and cast a shadow up the wall. Put it where you sit at night, turn everything else off, and let it be the only light on. The velvet takes the glare out of the bulb, and what is left pools down over the crystal and washes up the plaster behind it. That is the whole point of a lamp like this. Wired and working. Takes a standard bulb.
