Table lamp - Gilt brass, Murano glass

Lamp from the 1970s/1980s. Made of Murano glass. The lamp features an internal wooden base to which there is a round section in gilded brass that is the part shown in the photo as the base. Then the lamp stem, which has a urn-shaped body, is made of white opal glass, decorated with a hot-applied spiral of colored glass threads in a chromatic contrast, which in this case are brick red. This type of workmanship diffuses light in a soft and uniform way. Above it is completed by a closure also in gilded brass from which the white plastic structure begins, containing the bulb that illuminates the upper part. The lampshade is pleated/accordion. The lamp has a double electrical circuit, so it can be used either by turning on only the bulb inside the glass body or via the switch located under the lampshade, also using the bulb on the upper part. By using both bulbs as seen in some photos, the glass part spreads an elegant atmosphere. A lamp suitable to be placed on a side table next to the sofa, on a desk, in an office, or on a sideboard. It is fully functional. Measurements: height 60 cm. Width 41 cm. Depth 41 cm. Height of the glass part 35 cm. The lamp has been used and shows signs of time on the brass parts due to normal use, as visible in the photo. A lamp of high collectible value, suitable for collectors of Murano glass artworks or for anyone wishing to own a unique piece of Italian glass craftsmanship history to display in their office/home to add a touch of elegance. It will be shipped with proper packaging and trackable shipping.
