Description

A substantial cast brass figural group depicting a nostalgic Victorian street scene. The piece features a lamplighter dressed in a period suit and hat, leaning back whilst holding a slender metal rod to ignite a traditional four-sided street lamp. He is accompanied by a small terrier-type dog, both situated upon an integrated oval base with a textured cobblestone pattern. This style of heavy brassware was a popular decorative choice in mid-20th-century British households, often serving as a fireside ornament or mantelpiece display. The casting is solid and displays the characteristic weight associated with traditional brass foundry work. Dimensions: Approximately 23cm height, 21cm width, 10cm depth.
