This is a classic pair of Visual Comfort Black Marble lamps that are the personification of simplicity. Simple columns of black marble with minimal crystal inclusions mounted on brass bases and fitted with exceptional quality electrical fittings. The lamps probably date to the early 21st century. These chic lamps would incorporate perfectly into a modern-designed room, as well as providing lighting to a traditional or antiques-filled space. Visual Comfort is a very well respected lighting company that specializes in top quality electrical fixtures. We have tested the wiring and fittings--the lamps are ready for their next home.
