EDITORS COMMENTS
This elegant early 20th century gilt brass and alabaster cabin lamp, reminiscent of those once found on the luxurious Cunard Line ocean liners such as the RMS Aquitania, is a captivating piece of maritime history. Measuring 13 inches in height, this exquisite lamp was previously part of the Cobwebs collection in Southampton, England. The Cunard Line, renowned for its opulent ships and exceptional service, revolutionized transatlantic travel during the early 1900s. The RMS Aquitania, launched in 1914, was one of the company's most famous vessels, known for its grandeur and sophistication. This cabin lamp, with its intricate gilt brass detailing and smooth alabaster base, would have once graced the stately bedrooms of the Aquitania's privileged passengers. The switch, located at the base, would have provided a warm, inviting glow to the cabin, creating a cozy atmosphere amidst the vast expanse of the ocean. Transporting us back to an era of luxury travel, this postcard-worthy lamp is a testament to the elegance and refinement of the golden age of ocean liners. Its timeless design and rich history make it a desirable addition to any nautical or vintage decor collection.
