About the Item

Antique Carrier-Beluese Gilt Bronze Lady Oil Lamp Signed A Magnificent 19th-Century Work of Art and Historical Significance. This extraordinary oil lamp, signed by the acclaimed French sculptor Carrier-Belleuse, exemplifies the artistry and innovation synonymous with 19th-century design. Renowned for his influential role in the Neo-Classical movement, Carrier-Belleuse masterfully merged artistic beauty with functional utility. Produced during an era when oil lamps symbolized both practicality and social prestige, this exceptional piece is a testament to the cultural refinement of its time. At its core is an exquisitely crafted gilt bronze scene featuring a lady and boy, rendered with meticulous detail and timeless sophistication. The lady holds a rare pink font with a Hicks No. 2 oil burner, further complemented by a finely designed glass shade that enhances its visual appeal. The gilt bronze work represents the remarkable standards of craftsmanship that defined the late 19th century, serving as an enduring tribute to the skill and creativity of its makers. The lamp has been discreetly adapted with drilling to accommodate potential electrical conversion, ensuring its functionality in a contemporary setting. Detailed images illustrate its modular design, highlighting the ease with which it can be dismantled—further demonstrating its thoughtful construction and practicality. Treasured within a private collection for many years, this lamp is far more than a mere functional item. It is a captivating piece of history, combining artistic brilliance with cultural significance. Its distinguished provenance and timeless appeal make it a remarkable acquisition for both seasoned collectors and enthusiasts of fine antiques. Whether displayed as a centerpiece or incorporated into a curated collection, this exceptional artifact evokes the grandeur and legacy of its era. Condition Report The lamp remains a visually stunning and structurally sound piece. Its gilt bronze finish showcases a rich patina, adding character and authenticity while retaining its elegance.
