Vintage Amber Pressed Glass Hobnail Hurricane Lamp

This is a vintage electric student-style hurricane lamp featuring a prominent amber-colored pressed glass shade and a brass-finished metal base. The glass shade is the primary focus, exhibiting a complex 'hobnail' or 'quilted' texture with repetitive raised geometric patterns and a ruffled, crimped top rim. The glass transitions from a deep honey amber at the top to a lighter, translucent yellow-amber in the mid-section. The base is constructed from a non-magnetic metal, likely brass or brass-plated white metal, featuring a circular pedestal foot, a slender stem, and a chalice-like cup that holds the shade. A modern-style brown electric cord is visible, suggesting a mid-20th-century manufacture date, likely circa 1960s or 1970s. The metal base shows a matte patina with visible spotting, tarnish, and surface wear consistent with age and use. The glass shade appears to be in good structural condition without obvious cracks or large chips, although some minor flea bites along the fitter rim may be present. The overall style is a 20th-century revival of 19th-century Victorian oil lighting, characterized by its warm color palette and ornate glass textures.
