About the Item

This rare and impressive Italian Capodimonte porcelain floor lamp is a striking example of fine 20th-century artistry and craftsmanship. Standing tall with a richly detailed column base, the lamp is adorned with a series of hand-painted cherubs and classical figures in high relief, each rendered with extraordinary attention to detail. The polychrome glaze features vibrant hues of red, green, gold, and ivory, which bring depth and dimension to the sculptural elements. The base is lavishly decorated with ornate motifs, floral accents, and raised gilding, while the central shaft continues upward with delicately painted scenes and intricate molded embellishments. The cherubs and mythological figures that wrap around the column symbolize joy, abundance, and timeless beauty, hallmarks of the Capodimonte tradition. Capodimonte porcelain is highly prized for its elaborate sculptural qualities and exceptional artistry, and this lamp exemplifies those qualities on a monumental scale. Both functional and decorative, it is ideal for collectors of Italian porcelain, European decorative arts, or those seeking a truly unique statement lighting piece. Perfect for display in a formal living room, library, or grand entryway, this Capodimonte lamp represents the pinnacle of Italian porcelain artistry and adds a touch of opulence to any setting.

Life Size Carved Wood Neoclassical Cherub or Putti Torcheres Floor Lamps
Located in Swedesboro, NJ
A Superb Pair of 1950s Italian Carved Cherub Torchières in Antique White Finish This magnificent pair of mid-century Italian torchières presents an enchanting blend of Baroque revival elegance and 1950s craftsmanship. Each sculptural lamp features a beautifully carved putto—also known as a cherub—poised in a graceful, twisting stance and holding aloft a multi-arm candelabra-style light fixture. Finished in an antique white patina with soft, hand-rubbed aging, these tall torchières embody the romantic spirit and classical artistry for which Italian decorative arts are celebrated. Standing on intricately molded pedestal bases with volute scrollwork and acanthus leaf carving, the figures exhibit exceptional sculptural detail: flowing drapery, delicately modeled features, and expressive movement that recalls the grand decorative traditions of the 18th century. The gilt-accented metal candelabra tops add a warm contrast, bringing an added note of luxury while enhancing the vertical silhouette. Crafted in Italy during the 1950s, this pair offers the perfect balance of theatrical presence and refined neoclassical charm. Their impressive scale makes them ideal statement pieces for entry halls, formal living rooms, grand staircases, boutique hotels, or luxury retail interiors. Whether incorporated into a traditional European décor scheme or used as dramatic focal points in an eclectic or Hollywood Regency setting, these torchières have the presence to elevate any environment. Measures 85 inches tall x 19 x 19 wide. Italian torchières, putti torch stands, cherub floor lamps...

Fine Quality Agricultural Themed Figural Bronze Tall Floor Lamp Circa 1900
By F. Milliot
Located in Swedesboro, NJ
This agricultural themed figural bronze tall floor lamp, circa 1900, is a remarkable piece of decorative art and functional lighting. Standing tall and stately, the lamp features a finely cast bronze figure of a working man in period attire, symbolizing strength, labor, and the agrarian lifestyle. The sculpted details—from the folds of his garments to the expressive posture—exemplify early 20th century craftsmanship and artistic realism. Rising above the figure is an intricately designed stem that supports a large, decorative globe adorned with elaborate foliate and scrollwork patterns. The top is crowned with a smaller figural accent, creating a sense of vertical grandeur. The rich bronze patina enhances the depth of the detailing, giving this piece a warm, timeless character. Ideal as a statement piece for entryways, living rooms, or libraries, this lamp blends beautifully with antique, Hollywood Regency, and even mid-century modern design schemes. Beyond its practical lighting function, it serves as a sculptural focal point that reflects the elegance, symbolism, and artistry of turn-of-the-century European design. A rare find, this tall bronze floor lamp...
