Candelabra Bouillotte Candlestick Metal Table Lamps Pair Vintage Red Shades

  

Lamps to top of sockets: 20. Lamps to top of finials: 28.5. Lamps to top of shades: 24, 24.5.

Weight (including shades, but not cords): 7 lbs. Shades: 5 tall, 16.5 wide. If youre looking for high quality bouillotte or candelabra lamps, this is not the pair for you. If you like the style, but dont want to spend hundreds on each lamp, then this could be the pair for you. I would date them to the 1960s, made in the style of antique French lamps, but instead made out of thinner and cheaper materials.

Since the materials arent valuable, you could actually paint them any color you want and not destroy their value. They have been tested to make sure they work, and are set for four one-way bulbs.

There is only one option of having all four bulbs on or all off. There is no option to have less than four on at once. Despite being a matching set, the knobs are different. Also, one base is shiny and the other dulled from someone cleaning it using a rough pad or cloth.

Both bases have tiny white paint spots, and overall the metal pieces have tarnish spots or scratches. Each of the candles is made of a cardboard tube, and a few have worn edges. One of the cords has some scuff marks (see last photo). The shades are made out of thin metal, painted white on the inside and red on the outer band.

The exposed outer edges have a brass colored finish and tarnish spots throughout. I included a picture taken from the top down to show each shade is not perfectly circular and have irregularities.

There are several chips in the red paint, and lots in the white paint. The white paint is especially chippy in some areas. Both finials show wear just like the rest of the lamps. _gsrx_vers_827 GS 7.0.13 (827).
