Brass Oil Lamp Style Table Lamp

This is a classical style table lamp, primarily constructed from polished brass. The lamp features a distinctive base that mimics the form of an antique oil lamp or 'Aladdin's lamp', complete with a spouted body, a small curved handle on one side, and a decorative finial resembling a flame at the front of the 'spout'. The base transitions into a fluted, candlestick-like pedestal which then supports a cream-colored, faux candle column. This column, likely made of plastic or a similar synthetic material to simulate wax, serves as the central stem of the lamp. At the top, a standard brass harps (U-shaped wire frame) assembly holds a drum-shaped lampshade made of off-white or cream fabric. The fabric appears to be relatively smooth with a subtle texture, possibly linen or silk blend, and is supported by a visible wire frame on the interior. The brass components exhibit a warm, golden sheen, indicative of a polished finish, though some minor smudges or tarnish might be present, consistent with normal use. The electrical cord, brown and twisted, is visible near the base, suggesting a vintage or traditional wiring style. The condition appears good overall, with no obvious signs of significant damage, dents, or heavy scratching on the brass. The faux candle column seems intact, and the lampshade is clean and free of tears or significant discoloration. Its design suggests a traditional or possibly transitional decorative aesthetic, likely dating from the mid-20th century to contemporary production, aiming for a timeless or historical look. The craftsmanship appears to be of standard quality for mass-produced decorative lighting.
