Rococo Crystal Urn Table Lamp with Brass Scroll Handles

Design & Inspiration

Place this lamp on a console table or bedside chest and the room shifts — the crystal body catches every source of light in the space and returns it as a soft, prismatic glow, while the warm brass framework commands attention even before the lamp is switched on. Inspired by the French Rococo tradition of transforming functional objects into works of decorative art, this urn-form table lamp faithfully reproduces the vocabulary of 18th-century atelier craftsmanship: fluid curves, naturalistic ornament, and the interplay between transparency and gilded metal.

Materials & Craftsmanship

The body is a hand-cut crystal urn, its vertical facets ground to catch the light at multiple angles, crowned with a crystal finial and banded at the shoulder with a brass gilt ring. From either side of the urn spring scrolled brass handles worked in the Rococo manner — asymmetric, leafy, alive with movement — anchored to a cast brass base modeled with bold acanthus leaves and scroll cartouches. Above, a generously proportioned pleated ivory fabric shade diffuses the bulb's warmth into a soft ambient glow that is flattering to both the room and its occupants. Every metal element is finished in your chosen brass tone, hand-polished to bring out the relief detail in the casting.

Dimensions & Details

The lamp takes a standard E27 Edison screw bulb (max 60W) and is compatible with 110V–220V supplies worldwide. The pleated ivory shade measures approximately 40 cm in diameter at its widest point, scaled to balance the visual weight of the crystal urn base. Weight: 4 kg. Minimal assembly is required — the shade fits onto the lamp harp and is secured with a finial.

Handcrafted in Egypt

Every lamp is produced by Brass & Wood artisans in Egypt, drawing on metalworking traditions that trace their roots to centuries of European commission work. The brass components are cast, hand-filed, and finished individually; the crystal body is inspected for optical clarity before assembly. Customization of brass finish is available — choose from the full Brass & Wood palette to match your existing hardware or interior scheme.
