French Wooden Wine Press Floor Lamp

Offered by: Fireside Antiques

Description
This wonderfully aged 19th century grape press screw from a winery in Burgundy, France has been converted into a stunning floor lamp. The shaft would have driven a large stone wheel downward, crushing and squeezing grapes, forcing out their juice as the stone rotates across them. The production of wine is tantamount to French culture, and these larger-than-life screws make producing it en masse a possibility. This antique press, with a deep, rich staining and patina from the grapes has been wired for the US using UL listed parts by a professional. The custom ivory linen shade measures 17”H x 24” Diameter and the base measures 77”H x 12”W x 12”D. Make sure to view the detailed images for a closer look at this incredibly unique floor lamp.
