Vintage Brass and Stone Table Lamp

This is a vintage-style table lamp with a multi-material construction. The base and several decorative elements along the central column appear to be brass or a brass-toned metal, exhibiting an aged patina with some areas of tarnish and discolouration, particularly visible on the circular base. The metal components feature classical-inspired turned shapes, including fluted and stacked ring designs. A significant portion of the lamp's column is composed of lighter, possibly cream or off-white, material, which resembles polished marble, alabaster, or a composite stone. This section has natural-looking veining and a smooth, polished finish, though it appears somewhat discoloured from age or use. Near the top, just below the socket, there's a cylindrical segment that appears to be made of a lighter, possibly wooden or a different composite material with a light yellowish hue. The lamp is fitted with a standard light bulb socket made of brass or a similar metal, showing some wear. An LED light bulb is currently screwed into the socket. A white electrical cord with a two-prong plug is visible, wrapped and secured with a blue tie, suggesting the lamp is still functional. The harp (shade holder) is present and made of metal, consistent with the other brass-toned components. The overall condition suggests a used item with visible signs of wear and age, including surface scratches and patination on the metal. The craftsmanship indicates a manufactured piece, likely from the mid-20th century, designed to evoke a classical or traditional aesthetic.
