Vintage Italian Gilt Metal Wheat Sheath Lamp with Five Candle Arms | 41”
type: Product
description: Vintage Italian Gilt Metal Wheat Sheath Lamp with Five Candle Arms | 41” There are lamps—and then there are pieces of sculpture that just happen to light a room. Found in Round Top, Texas, this extraordinary vintage Italian gilt metal lamp immediately stopped me in my tracks. Standing an impressive 41 inches tall to the top of the harp screw, the entire lamp is fashioned as an exuberant sheaf of wheat, with long sculptural metal leaves and wheat heads sweeping upward and outward before being gathered at the center with a wonderfully detailed gilt rope tie. And then there are the five candle arms. Emerging from among the wheat at the lower portion of the lamp, four graceful arms terminate in flower-like candle cups, giving the piece the wonderful presence of a candelabrum and table lamp combined. The whole composition rests on a substantial round base with a contrasting wood plinth. Marked MADE IN ITALY on the metalwork. The aged gilt finish has developed beautiful variation and patina over time. There also appear to be areas where the gold-toned finish has been refreshed or touched up during its life. Rather than detracting from the piece, the layers give it the wonderfully collected character one hopes to find in vintage Italian decorative metalwork. Please refer closely to photographs for condition and finish. At 41 inches tall, this is not a timid little accent lamp. It has the scale to anchor a substantial console, chest, entry table or sideboard and would be spectacular in a layered, collected interior.
