A Large Pair of Italian Capodemonte & White Metal Tablelamps

A large pair of C20th Italian Capodemonte and white metal tablelamps, moulded with cherubs, scrolls and flowers. The lamps are formed with the centre section being made from the capodemonte pottery. It is baluster in shape and is heavily moulded with two large panels. Each panel shows a semi clad maiden sat with various cherubs around her. They are all in an outdoor setting with birds, trees and flowers around them. The rest of the centre section is moulded with scrolls and leaves, all heightened in gilt. The base section of either lamp is made from a silver coloured metal and square formed with scroll feet. The top section is also silvered metal with a pierced gallery. Inside the top it has a metal rod where the wiring would all attach to transform them into the tablelamps. The lamps date to the C20th and are a large size and very decorative.
