AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This substantial and spectacular crystal table lamp base from the prestigious Belgian manufacture Val Saint Lambert stands as an exceptional testament to mid-century art glass lighting, crafted during the 1950s. The piece instantly captivates the eye through the use of the traditional cased crystal technique, capturing a tapered, vibrant emerald green core inside an exceptionally thick layer of colorless clear crystal. The conical column silhouette is beautifully highlighted by an intricate structured vertical flat rib-cut along the body, expanding fluidly near the bottom to create a multi-lobed starburst base. The top section retains its original historical brass screw-threaded mount, completely ready to receive a modern socket and be paired with a vintage lampshade. The bottom of the piece provides full period authenticity for collectors, bearing the genuine hand-engraved signature from the factory. Displaying a fine density with a solid weight of 1600 grams ensuring excellent stability on your furniture, this art lighting piece stands at a height of 28 centimeters with a circular base measuring 11 centimeters across. The item is in very good overall condition, with the lead crystal retaining all its brilliant original historical luster without experiencing any chips or cracks, showing only standard light shelf wear friction underneath the bottom base rim consistent with its age. A highly graphic and timeless collectible design object, perfect for completing a sophisticated interior layout or adding a vibrant touch of classic vintage luxury to a sideboard setting.
