This sculptural bronze lamp combines elegance, exoticism, and craftsmanship, making it a unique object for collectors or enthusiasts of rare antiques.
It is a testimony of an era when Western artists, fascinated by the East, sought to capture its mystery and beauty in decorative art objects.
This lamp, made of bronze, depicts an evocative Oriental scene: a saddled camel walking under the shade of a majestic palm tree. The graceful movement of the camel, frozen in bronze, contrasts harmoniously with the silhouette of the palm tree, which seems to gently provide protective shade for the animal.
This delicate work reflects the precision of the sculptor, who managed to capture the texture of the camel’s coat, as well as the fine details of its accessories.
Sculpted Elements:
The Camel: Represented in all its majesty, the animal is finely detailed, with particular attention paid to the features of its face, the posture of its body, and the calm expression of the animal. Its elegant and realistic silhouette seems ready to traverse vast desert expanses.
The Palm Tree: An iconic element of Orientalist décor, the palm tree is meticulously sculpted, its fronds extending to create an atmosphere of calm and serenity.
The Bronze and Patina:
The bronze, carefully patinated, presents a warm color that enhances the authenticity of the piece.
Shade and Diffuser:
The accompanying lampshade is designed to enhance the entire composition, with a simple and elegant shape that allows for the diffusion of a soft, warm light. Its minimalist design is intended not to distract from the centerpiece: the sculpture of the camel and palm tree. This diffuser ensures a dimmed light, creating an intimate and warm atmosphere while highlighting the bronze craftsmanship.
Electricity:
The lamp has been fully restored and is equipped with a new electrical installation. It has a quality socket with a switch, allowing for practical and safe use. The electrical cord is fabric-covered, staying true to the period traditions while offering discreet and robust modernity. The plug (french) has also been replaced to ensure compatibility with modern outlets. Simply plug it in to enjoy its glow immediately.
Condition:
This lamp is in exceptional condition. It has been carefully maintained and restored to preserve its beauty and functionality. No noticeable damage or wear is reported, and its new electrical system guarantees long-term use with safety.
