Price on request

Exquisite vintage Italian table lamp from the 1970s, featuring a handcrafted Murano glass bird sculpture in free-form pink tones perched upon a clear glass stem with brass accents. A captivating statement lighting piece marrying artistic craftsmanship with mid-century elegance.

This striking vintage table lamp from 1970s Italy exemplifies the whimsical artistry and exceptional craftsmanship of Murano glassmaking. At its heart is a delicately modelled sculptural bird in free-form glass, showcasing a seamless gradient of soft pink and warm amber hues perched atop a dynamic, fluid clear glass base. Because each piece was individually shaped by hand, this sculpture is entirely unique. Complementing the organic glasswork are polished brass structural elements that introduce a refined metallic warmth. Topped with a tailored fabric shade that diffuses a gentle, welcoming glow, this lamp functions as both ambient lighting and an arresting standalone art object. It is fully operational with a standard E27 bulb holder. In excellent vintage condition, the glass is exceptionally clean and well-preserved. The brass components exhibit a light, authentic patina consistent with age, enhancing its historical charm. A wonderful acquisition for collectors of Italian art glass or distinctive mid-century interiors.
