I present here, an unusual & utterly
charming pair of vintage "Capodimonte-style" Italian figural lamps--a beautiful
boy & girl pair. I like to think of them as "Jack & Jill",
since they are drawing water from a well. They are a great size and
have wonderful detail, gorgeous color and abundant applied gold
highlights. Most notable are their lively, expressive faces & really
life-like demeanor. I also love the bucket handles and chains--such a
nice little "extra".
To top off these beauties, I've made a pair
of exciting & chic Toile fabric shades--a pale butter yellow ground
with plum, pink and green . The shades are trimmed in gold gimp braid.
Both the colors and the figures in the Toile fabric refer nicely
to the lamps--the lamps and shades look great together.
These lamps
have been fully restored from head-to-toe. They have been disassembled,
cleaned, touched up and fitted with brand new cords & sockets. They
are ready to provide you with decades of solid service--just add bulbs,
plug them in and switch them on.
Sizes are as follows...
Overall height: 37.5"
Figures: 19.75" tall
Bases: 8.5" dia.
Shades: 15" dia. x 15" tall
Because
these lamps are large & fragile, I want to encourage local pickup
or local delivery. However, I'm also happy to ship these lamps. They
will be carefully packed in 2 boxes--1 for the lamps and 1 for the
shades.
