Original listingHow we described it when it was for sale.The full description from our shop listing, unchanged.Read the full description +Vintage 1990s, classic Baldwin Brass dual serpentine, swan-head Bouillotte 2-arm Candlestick Lamp with adjustable Shade. This lovely working lamp with all original parts and wiring has 2 pull-chain sockets for 2 E26 size bulbs. The tall shade holder includes a working key on the side which allows for the shade to be adjusted higher or lower. The paper shade is black on the outside and white on the interior with matte gold trims on top and bottom edges. The faux candlesticks under the light sockets are made of white enamel painted wood sitting in brass sockets. The curved brass arms below each have an elegant, art nouveau - style swan head on the top. Pull chains feature tassel-shape solid brass bottom finials. The base is covered with black felt and has the original gold printed BALDWIN mark. This lamp measures 23" high and has a 6" diameter bottom base. It is 8" wide at the sockets and the shade measures 9" across the top, 13" across the bottom and is 6" high. This solid brass lamp weighs 6 lbs. Baldwin Brass, founded in 1946 in Pennsylvania, started as a producer of distinctive, high quality brass hardware for homes. After becoming an industry standard, the company branched out to home decor, producing lamps and candlesticks using its expertise in high quality brass components and assembly. In the 1990s, the company introduced its proprietary, patented, lifetime finish on all its products. Baldwin still produces high quality hardware and home decor items today and its vintage pieces are highly sought after items as well. Overall, this lamp is in very good condition with some slight wear and tear: small chips on paint on the top of one of the faux candlesticks, tarnish and patina on the unlacquered brass sockets and socket arms, some small tarnish spots on the bottom lacquered brass base, and on the shade holder - see photos for details. Shade and holder removed from base for packing and shipping (last 4 photos details reassembly of shade holder after unboxing) . Bulbs not included. A wonderful example of a classic Baldwin brass lamp!Written when the piece was for sale.
