Lot 409: A Middle Eastern Style Hammered Copper Table Lamp
A table lamp featuring a base converted from a hammered copper vessel. The bulbous body is decorated with incised architectural scenes depicting mosques alongside floral motifs. The tiered, flared stem includes a small curved spout-like protrusion, suggesting the base was originally a traditional water vessel or ewer before conversion. The lamp is topped with a pink pleated conical fabric shade. It is fitted with a modern white electrical cord and a standard UK three-pin plug. No maker’s marks, signatures, or factory stamps are visible on the base or body.
Condition report:
The piece shows signs of age and use consistent with a vintage item. There is visible patination, surface wear, and tarnishing to the copper components. The fabric shade is in fair condition with minor signs of wear. The electrical wiring is modern, however, as a second-hand electrical item, it must be inspected and PAT tested by a qualified professional before being connected to a power supply.
