Description from the seller

Antique French Art Deco Uranium Custard Glass Boudoir Lamp – "Made in France" – c. 1930s

An exceptionally rare and beautifully preserved French Art Deco boudoir table lamp dating from the mid-1930s. This exquisite piece features a central body crafted from opaque "custard" uranium glass (known in France as ouraline). In natural daylight, the glass has a soft, elegant cream-mint hue. When exposed to ultraviolet light (UV 395 and 365/ blacklight), the glass bursts into a spectacular, intense neon-green fluorescence—a hallmark of genuine, high-quality uranium glass.
The glowing glass body is elegantly framed by a classic, solid brass/bronze fluted base, which is clearly stamped on the bottom with "MADE IN FRANCE". The lamp is crowned with its dome-shaped fabric shade finished with a romantic, dusty-pink tassel fringe that diffuses a warm, intimate glow.

true collector's "time capsule" item. The wiring, the iconic olive-green "torpedo" switch, and the flat bakelite plug are completely authentic, untouched, and original to the lamp.

• Glass: In excellent antique condition, small chip at the top rim, see pictured.

Metalwork: Features a beautiful, authentic age-appropriate patina and clear "Made in France" stamping under the base.

Fabric Shade: Excellent vintage condition, structurally sound, and clean with minimal signs of age.

Wiring: Original and not functioning, needs being updated

Dimensions:
• Height: 28 cm (approx. 11 inches)
Shade Diameter: Approx. 18 cm (approx. 7 inches)

An incredibly striking decorative piece and a absolute masterpiece for any serious uranium glass (ouraline) or French Art Deco lighting collector!
Will be packaged with extreme care and shipped worldwide
