Forget dog-faced beasties that squat on balconies. The gargoyle featured in this lamp could just as easily be a demonic overlord urging its minions to war. Its long wings fold around its body like a noble’s cloak, its eyes raised to regard the light globe it holds high over its head, like some divine artifact it plans to shatter to signal the battle to begin. Emphasizing its point, its mouth gapes wide in a furious warcry. One can almost imagine the mass of unholy troops gathering their weapons and charging to initiate the siege. |
