About

This distinctive antique table lamp is formed from a 19th century hand-carved wooden figure depicting a rustic male character holding a staff and a bird, likely a duck or fowl. The sculpture displays strong folk-art character, with an expressive face, deeply carved garments, and lively naturalistic details that reflect traditional rural carving traditions. The surface retains a richly developed, time-softened patina with warm tonal variation, enhancing the figure’s sculptural depth and authenticity. The carving is signed Jeret at the base, adding notable artistic interest and collectibility. The carved figure is mounted on a stepped rectangular wooden base and has been professionally converted into a lamp for modern use, with updated wiring. Shade not included. Both sculptural and functional, this antique figural lamp works beautifully in a study, library, entry, or living space, offering visual impact and character whether illuminated or unlit. Excellent condition commensurate with age and use. Shade not included. Dimensions: 10″W x 8″D x 32″H
