Antique 19th Century Dutch Bouillotte-Style Table Lamp with Suspended Shade
Experience the refined elegance of 19th-century European design with this striking Dutch Bouillotte-style table lamp. While inspired by the neoclassical aesthetics of the French Empire, this antique lamp is distinctly Dutch in origin, showcasing a masterful blend of ornate craftsmanship and symbolic decoration.
Richly embellished with classical motifs—including knights in full armor, fleur-de-lis accents, and embossed shields—it captures the grandeur and martial spirit reminiscent of Napoleonic influence across Europe. Atop the lamp stands a finely detailed gilt knight, vigilant and dignified, adding a commanding presence.
The intricately worked metal shade, suspended gracefully by four slender chains, features delicate repoussé detailing and houses four small bulbs that emit a warm, atmospheric glow. The embossed base echoes the lamp’s stately silhouette, bringing harmony to its overall design.
A remarkable piece for collectors and connoisseurs of antique lighting, this lamp is not only a functional statement but also a testament to the artistic crosscurrents of 19th-century European decorative arts.
Condition Report
