"An apt quotation is like a lamp which flings its light over the whole sentence." - LETITIA ELIZABETH LANDON

Lamps crafted in the Art Deco style are notable for their use of geometrical or angular designs, and reliance on metals such as steel, bronze, or brass. These were also often over-scaled to create a striking impression, as can be seen in the present lot, which features two large crystal lamp shades that sit atop inverted conical bases. The brass stand incorporates sleek lines as well as streamlined and symmetrical forms that are characteristic of the Art Deco style.
