Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE 19TH CENTURY:
Natural rubbing to bare brass on raised bosses: decades of polishing and handling.
Cast candle wax drips beneath the bosses: made as ecclesiastical or mantel candlesticks.
Renaissance revival relief ornament with cabochons and scrolls: late Victorian decorative taste.
Heavy cast octagonal bases with lobed acanthus feet: solid late nineteenth-century metalwork.

This Independent Date Guide was compiled by Sellingantiques using its own proprietary system. It works only from the photographs shown on this page and is never told the date the dealer has declared. It is a guide, not a guarantee of age, and occasional errors can occur.

This pair of nineteenth-century table lamps is constructed from aged brass with a dark, muted metallic finish and visible surface wear. Each lamp stands upon a stepped hexagonal base decorated with repoussé scrollwork relief and foliate moulding, supporting an elaborate columnar stem with floral motifs and turned brass hardware fittings at the top. The electrical components include fitted brown fabric-covered twisted flex wiring and black inline switches, showing evidence of modern rewiring. Each piece measures 45.5 cm high, 18 cm wide, and 18 cm deep. These lighting fixtures are suitable for placement on a sideboard top, desk, or side table within a traditional study or living room.

FAQs

Repousse brass lighting refers to metal lamps or candleholder conversions shaped by hammering decorative relief patterns into the metalwork from the reverse side, a technique widely refined during the nineteenth century.

These lamps typically feature sheet brass worked via chasing and repousse techniques, combined with cast brass bases and stems, held together with central threaded steel or iron rods.

Authentic period pieces display hand-tooled relief marks, natural surface oxidisation or patina in recessed areas, and evidence of historical adaptations such as wiring holes added to original candlestick forms.

Position them as a symmetrical pair on a dark wood sideboard, console, or writing desk, paired with neutral silk or linen shades to contrast with the ornate metalwork.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft cloth, avoiding abrasive polishes or chemical cleaners that can strip away original patination and discolour the relief detail.
