Bring the evergreen allure of a Tuscan garden indoors! Our playful 1960s Italian tole lamp features a sculptural bouquet of hand-painted metal lilies and foliage arranged in softly patinated hues along a slender central stem. The lamp is anchored by a painted base with a gilt accent, lending warmth and contrast to the airy floral composition.
Tole lamps enjoyed renewed popularity in the mid-20th century as decorative lighting shifted toward sculptural, expressive forms. Italian and French makers produced floral and botanical designs in painted metal that brought warmth and ornament to interiors, offering a romantic counterpoint to modernist restraint. These lamps were prized as accent pieces, blending easily with both traditional furnishings and emerging mid-century styles.
Our lamp introduces a whimscial, garden-inspired sensibility, making it an elegant accent for an entry table, bedside, or reading nook, while harmonizing effortlessly with both classic and eclectic interiors. Its slender profile makes it especially versatile, while the dimensional floral detailing offers visual interest from every angle. It's a standout Hollywood Regency accent ready to be personalized with a shade of your choice.
