Description
This simple yet dramatic amethyst-colored table lamp is in the largest size (over 18 inches excluding the lamp-fitting and shade).
The colored core in Classic Val Saint Lambert tint has been given a thick Sommerso (clear crystal casing) so that the object appears delicate whilst being actually heavy and stabile as a lamp base.
Produced between 1955 and 1965, it was handmade from top-quality lead crystal by Val Saint Lambert (the main Belgian crystal glassware manufacturer, founded in 1826 and based near Liege.)
The item is in a completely undamaged state, signed Val Saint Lambert on the base, and bears the original VSL label.
It’s in full working order having recently been re-wired and provided with new lamp-fitting, E27.
The lamp is for sale without any lampshade. The fitting will suit all the standard-sized lamp shades.
Weight (crystal lamp with fittings excl. shade) 5.1 kg 11.24 pound.
The height is measured without shade and fittings.
And safe for immediate usage in the world.
