Vintage Cut Glass and Brass Table Lamp

This is a vintage table lamp featuring a spherical body crafted from clear, cut glass, topped with a brass neck and a white lamp shade (partially visible). The spherical glass body exhibits intricate facet-cut patterns, transitioning from a diamond-cut, cross-hatch design on the upper hemisphere to vertical fluting or ribbing with stylized star or leaf motifs at the base. The glass appears to be of good quality, showing a high degree of clarity and refractiveness. The lamp stands on three clear glass feet, subtly integrated into the bottom of the spherical body, suggesting a delicate yet stable base. The brass neck connecting the glass body to the light socket and shade holder is conical, tapering upwards, and displays a warm, aged patina consistent with brass that has not been recently polished. Along the base of the brass neck, where it meets the glass, there is a decorative band with a textured or beaded edge, adding to its ornate appearance. The white lamp shade is only partially visible at the top, implying a traditional barrel or bell shape. There are no visible chips, cracks, or significant damage to the glass body, and the brass shows no obvious dents or heavy corrosion, only natural aging. The electrical components (cord, plug, switch) are not fully visible but would be important for assessing functionality and safety. The overall aesthetic suggests a late 19th to early 20th-century design, possibly Art Deco or Victorian revival, characterized by its decorative opulence and blend of materials.
