Vintage Slag Glass Tulip Shade Table Lamp
This is a vintage table lamp featuring a multi-paneled slag glass shade with a tulip or scalloped edge profile. The shade is constructed using traditional leaded glass techniques, likely copper foil, with a combination of textured green glass panels at the top and bottom and cream/amber marbled slag glass panels in the main body. The base is crafted from a cast metal, likely brass or a brass-finished white metal, showing a significant aged patina and dark oxidation, particularly on the neck and tiered circular base. The lamp stands approximately 18-22 inches tall. The shade consists of six main translucent panels with vertical streaks of white and yellow, framed by smaller emerald green textured glass diamonds at the points and rectangular panels at the crown. Condition-wise, the leaded seams appear intact, though the metal base shows heavy surface wear and some pitting consistent with late 20th-century production (circa 1970s-1980s revival style). A blue price tag is fixed to the central column. The craftsmanship reflects a mass-produced take on the Arts and Crafts or Tiffany style, characterized by the heavy solder lines and simple turned-metal base design.
