  • Form: These lamps are designed in a classic urn or baluster silhouette, characterized by a gracefully tapered body that widens towards the center before narrowing at the base.
  • Material & Finish: The bases are crafted from mercury glass, which is traditionally double-walled and silvered on the inside to create a reflective, metallic shimmer.
  • Color: They exhibit a vibrant teal or French blue tint, which, when combined with the mercury glass finish, creates a rich, tonal variation and depth. 

Construction Details

  • Hardware: Each lamp is fitted with metallic caps and bases, likely brass or silver-tone metal, which provide structural stability and a decorative contrast to the glass body.
  • Lighting: They feature standard sockets topped with decorative finials. The tall harp indicates they are designed to accommodate large shades, typically of a drum or empire style

Dimensions: 33” tall 10” Diameter
