FAQs

Floor lamps combining onyx and gilt metal became popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, often reflecting the ornate styles of the French Belle Epoque and Art Nouveau periods, where natural stone was frequently utilised in high-end decorative arts.

These lamps typically feature a turned or carved natural onyx shaft, combined with cast gilt brass or bronze components, mounted on a weighted metal base for stability.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit hand-chased metal details, genuine banded onyx with natural colour variations, period-appropriate wiring methods, and heavier construction compared to modern reproductions.

An antique floor lamp can serve as a sophisticated focal point in a living room or study, contrasting effectively with minimalist furniture or complementing traditional schemes when paired with a neutral pleated fabric shade.

Clean the onyx gently with a soft, dry cloth, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners or excess moisture which can damage the stone and strip the delicate gilt finish on the metal.
