This large neo-classical revival floor standing lamp stands 190 cm high, 60 cm wide, and 60 cm deep. The piece is formed from white Carrara marble and displays a bright white monochromatic finish throughout. The upper section comprises a spherical shade decorated with an engraved hand-carved relief frieze depicting figures on horseback and chariots, topped with a fluted finial. Below the globe, a central column features three caryatids standing back-to-back with crossed arms, supported by capital mouldings. The sculptural shaft rests upon a stepped triform pedestal base adorned with ram-head mounts and detailed relief carving. Placed in an empty corner, the tall architectural lamp serves as a focal interior illumination piece for grand reception rooms, formal hallways, or large living spaces.

Neoclassical Revival lighting draws direct inspiration from classical Greek and Roman antiquity, featuring symmetrical forms, architectural columns, caryatids, and classical friezes popularised during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

These pieces were typically carved from solid white marble or alabaster, often incorporating detailed relief carving, pedestal bases, and hollowed stone shades designed to diffuse light.

Authentic period examples display precise hand-carved details with subtle hand-tooling marks, natural veining within the stone, significant physical weight, and internal wiring channels consistent with historic electrical conversions.

Position the piece as an architectural focal element in a hallway, grand foyer, or drawing room, pairing it with clean-lined contemporary furniture to highlight its classical proportions.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft microfibre cloth and clean stone surfaces using a pH-neutral cleaner specifically formulated for natural marble, avoiding acidic or abrasive chemical products.
