Vintage Hollywood Regency Cut-Glass and Ornate Brass Table Lamp

This is a vintage table lamp designed in the Hollywood Regency style, likely dating from the mid-20th century (circa 1950s-1970s). The lamp features a composite construction of various decorative elements. The base is an ornate, square-shouldered brass or gold-toned metal pedestal resting on small cast feet. Above the base is a layered glass structure consisting of a frosted or satin-finished lower section and a central spherical globe. This globe exhibits deep, geometric glass cutting in a starburst or cross-hatch pattern, which is characteristic of the period's decorative lighting. One of the most distinguishing features is the ornate cast metal swan-like or Rococo-style scroll handle located just above the glass body, adding a theatrical flair to the silhouette. The electrical assembly includes an aged brass socket and a tall, slender harp used for mounting a lampshade. In terms of condition, there is visible oxidation and patina across the metal components, particularly on the harp and base. The power cord appears to be an older white vinyl type, which is currently wrapped loosely around the lower glass section. The glass itself appears intact but may require deep cleaning to restore its original luster. No visible maker’s marks are discernible in the photograph, but the high degree of casting detail on the handle indicates a mid-level mass-production quality aimed at the decorative home market.
