Mid 20th Century French Provincial Louis Xvi Brass Three-Arm Bouillotte Lamp With Red Tole Shade
Chairish$995
A classic bouillotte lamp rendered in warm brass, distinguished by its tailored red and gold tole shade. The form traces back to 18th-century French card table lighting, yet this mid-century example feels especially versatile—refined without being precious. The adjustable shade, anchored by a decorative arrow finial, allows for a controlled, intimate glow. The contrast of aged brass against the matte red tole gives it a quiet authority—equally suited to a study, a library console, or layered into a more relaxed coastal interior. It’s the kind of piece that brings structure to a vignette: grounding books, balancing symmetry, and adding just enough historical reference without feeling staged. Details: Dimensions: 12.75"W x 12.75"D x 26"H Materials: Brass, red tole shade with gold scrollwork Condition: Very good original vintage condition. Lamp has two candle cups and two electrical sockets. Powers on and ready for immediate use.
