Lamp is primarily gold with two rams head and feet supporting an oval central plaque. Lemoges porcelain center is composed of a romantic scene reminiscent of Jean-Honoré Fragonard. Tole porcelain flowers and metal vines creep up from the base. Two reeded arms arch above the central plaque with nicely modeled foliage bursting into the exposed bulb lamp portion. Base is gilt and beaded. Lamp operates with a Bakelite type knob at the back. less
