Victorian Silver Plated Corinthian Column Lamp

19th century
Description

A nice example of a silver plated Corinthian column table lamp. It has the traditional column design set on a stepped base. It was likely once an oil lamp base that has now been converted to an electric table lamp and re-wired with a standard bayonet bulb holder. It is in good working order and has been PAT Tested for electrical safety.

The lamp is in good condition. There are some minor marks and general signs of age and use but nothing detrimental. Some of the plating has worn in places, particularly around the base and where it has been handled but it has been lightly cleaned and polished and still displays well.

Approximate Measurements :

Height : 18" / 46cm

Base : 6" / 15cm square

The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions just ask.

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

A Corinthian column lamp is a table light designed to mimic the classical architectural order, featuring a fluted vertical shaft, an ornate capital decorated with acanthus leaf motifs, and a square, stepped pedestal base.

Victorian examples were typically cast in brass or copper and coated with silver via electroplating, creating a solid metal structure with a highly reflective surface finish.

Authentic nineteenth-century pieces often feature electroplate makers marks on the underside of the base, heavy cast metal construction, weighted bases, and natural wear where the underlying base metal shows through the silver plating.

These lamps function as architectural focal points when placed on modern sideboards, desks, or bedside tables, paired with simple linen or silk shades to contrast classical metalwork with modern textures.

Clean gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth. To remove tarnish, use a specialist silver polish sparingly, avoiding abrasive cleaners that could strip the delicate electroplated silver layer.
