A pair of stunning floor standing parcel gilt torchères in the manner of Robert Adam. The neoclassical form is exemplified by the slender sweeping legs which support the urn shaped faux oil reservoir on which the shades rest. The legs are mounted on a faux griotte marble platform base.
English, c.1920.

Provenance: Wynn House, St James's, London. Final images shows them in situ. Wynn House was designed by Robert Adam for Sir Watkin William Wynn, 4th Baronet, a wealthy landowner, politician and patron of the arts. Wynn house was once something of a country residence, and Sir Watkin was even known to keep a cow in St James's Park.

Notes: Can be supplied with torchère light shades, or with the original bowl shaped shades.
