Italian Murano Glass Bell-Flower Table Lamp, 1940s
An Italian Murano glass table lamp from the 1940s, with a bell-flower silhouette expressed through fluted glass and softly rippling edges.
The tall shade narrows toward a rounded crown before opening into a broad, undulating rim. Vertical ribs follow this movement, widening as they reach the edge and giving the glass the appearance of petals unfolding. Below, a smaller bell-shaped base repeats the gesture, its scalloped foot spreading gently across the surface.
The transparent glass carries a delicate blush-pink tint, most apparent along the thicker rims and curved ridges. Between these edges, the material remains light and clear, revealing the bulb and metal fittings within. Reflections stretch through the fluting, bringing movement to the symmetrical form.
Darkened brass hardware connects the two glass elements, with a small domed cap and textured cylindrical finial finishing the top. The fittings give definition to the pale glass without interrupting its outline. When illuminated, the exposed light catches the ribs and ruffled edges, tracing the floral shape with warm highlights.
