A fabulous pair of 19th century metal thread tassels, now mounted as lamps. France, 19th century.

Fitted with modern cordless, rechargeable, dimmable LED lights.

Why we like them

These tassels certainly belonged to the grand drapery of a château or a great house — the passementier would have spent weeks making them. Mounted as lamps, they are unapologetically theatrical, and when lit they glow rather than shine.

Perfect for an intimate dining room — and, being cordless, for dining alfresco.
