This vintage electric table lamp, approximately 80 years old, beautifully blends hand-cut glass craftsmanship with a brass-finished base and fittings. The frosted and gradient glass shade diffuses a warm, inviting glow, making it both a functional light source and a statement collectible. Standing at 31 inches tall with a 11 x 11 inch base, this lamp carries the charm of early-to-mid 20th century design, when lighting was as much about elegance as utility. The combination of crystal-clear cut glass and brass detailing reflects the influence of Art Deco and early modernist styles, popular in home interiors from the 1930s to the 1950s. Whether placed in a study, living room, or as a focal point in a vintage-inspired decor, this lamp is more than just lighting—it’s a piece of history that has illuminated homes for generations. Size: Height: 31 inches Base: 11 x 11 inches Material: Brass-finished metal, hand-cut glass, frosted gradient glass shade Age: ~80 years old (circa 1940s–1950s) Condition: Vintage with signs of age and gentle wear, consistent with its history.

Historical Note: Lamps of this style became popular during the post-Art Deco period of the mid-20th century, blending the geometric influence of the 1920s–30s with more organic shapes and warm lighting for domestic comfort. In India and Europe, similar designs were favored for their sturdy brass bases and cut-glass oil lamp inspirations, later adapted for electric fittings. These lamps often served as a symbol of refinement in middle- and upper-class homes, passed down through generations.
