Traditional Cut Crystal Table Lamp with Brass Accents

This table lamp features a classic two-piece cut crystal construction, consisting of a globular upper shade and a tapered, flared pedestal base. Both glass components are characterized by intricate diamond-cut (cross-hatch) patterns that transition into elegant vertical leaf-like or lanceolate motifs. The glass is clear and of high lead content, evidenced by the sharpness of the facets and light refraction qualities. The structural hardware includes a polished brass-finished metal base with decorative beaded edging and a central brass stem that supports the single-light socket assembly. The lamp utilizes a smaller candelabra-base incandescent bulb, positioned horizontally or angled within the shade. Stylistically, the piece reflects a late 20th-century traditional aesthetic, often associated with manufacturers like Waterford or Shannon Crystal, though no specific maker's mark is visible in the primary view. The condition appears fair to good: the glass shows no immediate evidence of large chips or fractures, but the brass hardware shows moderate surface wear, oxidation, and some minor scratching consistent with use. The wiring is white and appears pliable, though standard safety testing is recommended. The craftsmanship is noted in the weight and clean alignment of the crystal facets.
