These tall mid-century torchiere lamps embody ancient mythology, by depicting two goddess sculptures each standing elegantly at 25 inches tall.
One goddess, with a rich bronze complexion and flowing golden hair intricately braided in an ancient Greek style, wears a sleeveless, diaphanous gown in a radiant yellow. The fabric cascades gracefully around her, cinched at the waist, with delicate pleats that dance around her slightly bent left knee and a hem that caressed her bare feet.
Beside her, the second goddess boasts a luminous gold complexion and dark hair, similarly styled in braids. She is adorned in a matching gown of soft pink, complementing the vibrant hues of her companion.
Both figures stand atop rugged rocks, positioned before a rectangular pedestal entwined with lush grapevines. This pedestal supports a brass post, crowned with a beautifully cased glass lamp shade, shaped like a reverse bell, featuring a striking blue-green exterior that contrasts with its milky white interior.
The goddesses appear lost in thought, cradling multiple bunches of grapes against their bosoms with their left arms, while their right hands gracefully support brown pottery jugs on their shoulders. The vibrant colors allows these lamps to complement many design schemes
