The details are incredible with the wide collar near the neck and warm brass patina. They measure 31 inches from the base to the socket and 36 inches including the harp and finials, all original. The lamps work perfectly and have three-way switches.
The appraiser calls them "elegant despite their comparative simplicity." The hand-hammering is absolutely a nod to the Arts & Crafts style, though these have more sophistication. The hammering treatment creates a beautiful sort of reflection from the brass. The mahogany touches in the form of circular collars is smart, and creates visual interest with the hand-hammering. These definitely have a "wow" factor. Each of circular section and tapered conical form with narrow top and foot.
They are unmarked.
The lamps are in good vintage condition. There are a few signs of age to the surface of the lamps. The lamps could benefit from a bit of conservancy, but they present extremely well. less
