Description

An elegant antique brass bridge floor lamp dating to the early 20th century, featuring a classic adjustable arm terminating in a single light socket and period shade . The form is distinguished by its slender columnar shaft and gracefully arched arm, designed to extend light over a seating area—typical of bridge lamps used in parlors and reading spaces.

The base is cast with four shaped legs ending in stylized claw or paw feet, providing both stability and decorative character. The overall design reflects a restrained neoclassical influence, common in American lighting of the 1910s–1930s period.
