A highly decorative vintage turned wood candlestick lampbase with painted barbola work flowers and leaves circa1930. This charming typically 30s period lampbase has lots of different pretty flowers to the base,leaves on the gold coloured stem and side to base. It is made from smooth turned hardwood and is quite heavy as it is weighted for stability, metal inside the base.
The barbola work is artistic and well executed, the whole effect is very pleasing to the eye. Will need to be re-wired as still has the original lampholder and the old wire has been cut off. Over the years a litttle gilding is wearing off and there are a few little chips to the barbola, nothing to offend lovers of shabby chic, overall this this is in good condition.
Measures - 14.2" high +2.1" bulbholder, 6.5" base diameter, 19" base circumference.
