Description

Circa 1910-1920 A pair of beautifully detailed spelter lamps on the original bases, rewired to UK specifications.

They measure 72cm in total; 66cm in height up to the base of the lightbulb holder, the figures including the base, measure 54cm, and the bases are 13cm x 21cm.

We cannot find a foundry mark, but the details on the uniforms, shields, and headdress are top quality, very sharp and clear, and the sign of good production. Some of the images have been lightened to show the excellent details including the additional shields and emblems around the bases.

Both figures are in very good condition with no signs of damage. The long spear one figure is holding had broken in half whilst in the previous owner's possession, and we had a new, dark brass one made and this can be seen in the last few photographs.

If the buyer can arrange collection from us in SW London, we will pack them safely and offer a 20% discount on the price.

Alternatively, postage and packing within the UK mainland only is included in the price and for outside areas or abroad, please contact us for a delivery quote.
