Antique Lighting from The Drawing Room

# 5154. An Antique French Sinumbra Table Lamp. This lamp dates from before 1850. Signed on the oil font: - Par Brevet - D'Importation - Concession - M. et C ie - . Size: approximately 20" tall to the top of the font; the shade is 10" in diameter and it is 8" tall making the lamp almost 30" tall to the top of the chimney. Condition: electrified; one of the oil feeder tubes which also support the font has been replaced; there are small dents to the octagonal base; the surface of the lamp - the green paint and gold decoration - was probably 'decorated' in the 1950's. The glass shade is a period shade but may or may not be the original base shade; there are two flakes to the shade. The metal is tin with brass fittings. This style shade which is frosted inside gives a very soft pleasing light. Price: $6,500.00.
