An elegant, circa 1840 solid bronze table lamp of hexagonal form with urn surmounting clustered column on stepped plinth base on ball feet by the Boston, Massachusetts firm of Henry N. Hooper & Company, a leading purveyor of lighting fixtures in mid-19th century Boston, active from 1831 to 1868. Originally a sinumbra lamp, converted to electricity in the early 20th century, and recently rewired for North American use. Marked internally “H.N.Hooper & Co. Boston”. Hooper lighting is included in the permanent collection of many museums, most notably, the Metroplitan Museum of Art, New York.
