Forged from solid iron and still showing traces of its original painted finish that has achieved a fine patina, this 19th century floor lamp was originally designed for a candle, and now is perfect for the Country French decor! The elegant scrolls of the tripod leg structure provide a stable base, with the central shaft consisting of two twisted rod segments and a top extension that supports the original bobeche which was designed to capture dripping candle wax. Newly electrified, the price includes the hand-sewn silk shade as pictured. Measures 70H x 18 in diameter as pictured. Original torchere circa 1870s
