1970s Blown Blue and White Glass Table Lamp – Original Fringed Lampshade

Vintage 1970s Blown Glass Table Lamp

An elegant vintage table lamp from the 1970s, featuring a refined base of white frosted blown glass, decorated with delicate vertical stripes in shades of light blue and blue.

The soft, rounded shape of the base is complemented by an original pleated fabric lampshade, embellished along the rim with a scenic fringe composed of small pearls and beads in shades of white, turquoise, clear, and gold.

The ensemble creates a fascinating contrast between the organic simplicity of the glass and the sophisticated, decorative appearance of the lampshade, recalling the glamorous taste of 1970s interiors and the Hollywood Regency aesthetic.

Dual Illumination

One of the most distinctive features of this lamp is its dual light system.

In addition to the main light diffused through the lampshade, a second bulb directly illuminates the inside of the glass base.

When the lamp is on, this second light source enhances the light blue and blue stripes of the glass and creates a pleasant ambient light, transforming the base into a luminous decorative element.

The result is a particularly striking lamp both functionally and aesthetically.

Original Lampshade

The lamp retains its original vintage pleated fabric lampshade.

The lower part is decorated with a characteristic beaded fringe, made of small elements in glass and transparent material in shades of turquoise, white, gold, and crystal.

This detail significantly contributes to the lamp's character and emphasizes its sophisticated and decorative aesthetic.
