Description
Attributed to Robert Abbey, this Asian-inspired elephant table lamp exemplifies the bold elegance of Hollywood Regency design. Cast in solid resin, the sculptural form is richly adorned with Indian and Asian-influenced motifs that wrap gracefully around the body, lending depth and visual interest from every angle.
The lamp is finished in a luminous gold and maroon lacquer that subtly glistens in natural light, enhancing its decorative impact. A striking red silk shade crowns the piece, adding warmth and contrast while reinforcing its dramatic, statement-making presence.
Both functional and highly decorative, this lamp is ideal for use on a console, side table, or as an accent in a living room or bedroom. In excellent working order, it offers timeless glamour and collectible appeal for interiors that embrace layered texture and global-inspired sophistication.
This lamp is in excellent vintage condition. Its corded wiring and electrical appears in good working order as shown in the photos.
