About the Item
A beautifully sculpted pair of Italian neoclassical hand carved alabaster lamps, distinguished by their harmonious use of two contrasting tones: a richly veined brown and a soft, creamy white. Each lamp is modeled in the form of a classical urn, raised on a stepped square plinth, and evokes the refined taste for antiquity.
The graceful silhouette features stylized swan-form handles, masterfully hand carved in the round with curling S-scroll necks and feathered detailing, connecting elegantly at the shoulder and neck of the urn. The body is composed of alternating sections of veined alabaster, with the midsection adorned by an intricately carved band of upright laurel leaves, echoed by a corresponding band of downturned foliage near the base—each motif rendered in crisp, sculptural detail.
A gently flaring lamp bowl, deeply scalloped along the rim, rises from the central shaft, creating a balanced and lyrical vertical rhythm. The domed bases are equally refined, layering warm and cool alabaster in a tiered composition that rests on square plinths. The urn tops, adapted as lamp mounts, are finished with radiating fluted carvings reminiscent of classical flowerhead motifs, enhancing their sculptural presence.
Likely originating from Italy’s renowned alabaster workshops—such as those in Volterra or Florence—these lamps exemplify the region’s legacy of finely polished stonework and classical elegance. Their construction is entirely in carved and joined alabaster. A stunning example of neoclassical revival craftsmanship, this pair blends sculptural artistry with timeless decorative appeal.
