This stunning elephant lamp draws its inspiration from Gian Lorenzo Bernini's iconic 1667 sculpture, featuring an elephant supporting an ancient Egyptian obelisk in the charming Piazza della Minerva, Rome.
Crafted from resin, the elephant has a dark gray hue and is dressed with a vibrant, ornate copper fabric intricately embossed with floral patterns in relief. The rich colors of the fabric create a striking contrast against the elephant’s understated gray, while delicate gold tassel fringe elegantly trims the fabric.
The majestic elephant stands proudly on a multilayered pedestal made from antique white painted spelter. This pedestal features an intricate gold scroll border at the top, while the bottom showcases a gold basket weave pattern that offers a rich texture. The combination of antique white and shimmering gold exudes a sense of timeless sophistication.
Perched on the elephant's back is a striking brown marble obelisk, characterized by beautiful white veining, serving as a commanding focal point that draws the eye upward and complements the elephant's graceful form.
Atop the obelisk rests an intricately scrolled antique pierced brass goblet torch, adorned with fine filigree details. The light is diffused through a round crystal shade, embellished with a vintage diamond pattern that casts a warm, inviting glow when illuminated. Together, these elements create a lamp that is not only functional but also a captivating work of art, seamlessly blending classical inspiration with modern craftsmanship. This lamp would serve as a striking conversation piece, illuminating a variety of interior design schemes. less
