French Vintage Green Onyx Table Lamp with Custom Shade
Description
French Green Onyx Table Lamp with Custom Designer Shade is an elegant vintage French lighting piece dating to circa 1930. Expertly hand-carved from richly figured green onyx, the lamp is designed as a refined Neoclassical column accented with brass fittings at the capital and base. Complemented by a distinctive custom lampshade crafted from velvet and dupioni silk with gold trim and decorative tassels, this luxurious lamp brings timeless French sophistication to any desk, side table, or living space.
