AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Table lamp in blown and cut overlay crystal, deep violet/amethyst color with white and black inclusions and marbling, signed Val Saint Lambert (original gold oval label affixed under the base, the classic mark of the Belgian crystal maker Val Saint Lambert).
Generous and elegant pear-shaped form, typical of Val Saint Lambert creations from the 1950s–1960s (mid-century modern / late Art Deco style), with a very rounded body and a slender neck. Mastered overlay technique: clear crystal carved deeply to reveal fluid abstract motifs (waves, stylized flames, or organic marbling), on an intense violet outer layer that creates a stunning interplay of transparency, iridescent reflections, and depth depending on the angle of light. The waist is precise and deep, offering exceptional brilliance and a commanding sculptural presence.
Original patinated bronze mount (threaded ring, E27 socket, and brass pull-chain with beads/ball), but the electrical wiring has been cut and must be completely redone (simple work to be arranged by a professional electrician). The pull-chain is present and functional.
Precise dimensions (excluding lampshade and socket):
- Overall height of the vase/lamp: 28 cm
- Maximum width (waist): 13 cm
- Weight: 2500 g
Condition: very good. The crystal is of remarkable clarity, with no cracks, chips, crazing, or visible tarnish. Homogeneous and saturated violet color, intact reflections. The Val Saint Lambert label is present, legible, and original (see detailed photos). Only the electrical part requires re-wiring (old cut). The lampshade shown in the photos is not included in the sale.
A rare, heavy piece from Val Saint Lambert crystal works, a Belgian master lamp that blends luxury, mid-century craftsmanship, and the substantial weight typical of full lead crystal. Ideal for a collector or for careful electrical restoration.
Secure and fully insured shipping via Bpost. Reinforced and meticulously prepared packaging (double box, individually tailored padding in dense foam or thick bubble wrap, complete protection of the frame, the bridge and the base to prevent any shocks).
