Lavish Lamps.

I love to get out and go to antique, thrift, and consignment stores. You would be surprised at all the Lavish things you can find for great prices. One of my favorite stores to frequent is Molly and Me, on the square in Hayesville, North Carolina. They have an excellent selection of antiques, inexpensive home accessories, as well as a wide variety of consignment objects ranging from old and quirky to modern. Recently, while shopping, I stumbled across a great pair of antique table lamps. The lamps are a sculpted metal in a perfect green. They have superb carved details and even came with the original matching finials. No clue on the age or make, however, they scream Parisian to me.

The lamps, including the harp, stand over three feet tall.

The carved detailing is absolutely amazing and continues all the way up the lamps.

I think the natural fibers of these black, linen lamp shades will contrast well with the carved, metal posts of the lamps. All it takes is a little digging around and some creative contrast and you can have an excellent set of lamps, for an amazing price. Lavish Lamps. Sante.
