This nineteenth-century Edwardian table lamp by Faraday and Sons serves as a functional desk light in a gentleman's library or office. Fabricated in solid brass, the piece exhibits a warm gold finish throughout its metallic construction. The structure includes a turned baluster stem terminating in a bayonet lamp holder at the top, while the lower section rests on three curved, splayed tripod feet that flare outward from the central base. Horizontal ring mouldings encircle the upper portion of the vertical column just below the bulb fitting. Practical placement includes positioning the lamp on a writing desk or study table to provide directional task lighting. The compact dimensions measure 36 cm high, 20 cm wide, and 20 cm deep, allowing the light to occupy minimal space on a work surface. The traditional design integrates smoothly into period or transitional interior schemes requiring historical desk accessories.

FAQs

Edwardian brass table lamps typically feature solid cast or turned brass components, classic baluster columns, and weighted bases designed for stability on desks and side tables.

Lamps from this period were predominantly crafted from solid cast brass, often incorporating weighted iron inside the base, turned brass stems, and ceramic or brass bulb holders.

Authentic pieces often display makers stamps on the base or fitting, subtle surface patination, original brass bayonet sockets, and heavy cast construction rather than lightweight stamped metals.

Place the lamp on a dark wood writing desk, a sideboard, or a bedside table alongside contemporary books and simple ceramics to complement the historic metalwork.

Dust regularly with a soft dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive polishes that remove natural patination, and ensure electrical components are rewired by a qualified electrician.
