RARE Early Antique Vtg Pink Opaline Twist Murano Art Glass Lamp Seguso? MCM:
$350.00

This absolutely gorgeous antique Murano table lamp has been rewired and has a new pad of felt on the bottom. It is not marked, but this is an early example that I would estimate dates to the 1930’s or so. The base color of the glass is pink/purple, but it is true opalescent glass, with the unique property that it has a bluish, milky tone when light shines on it from the front, but gleams with a orange-red “fire” when lit from behind. This combines with the way the deep ridges of the glass catch the light and creates a stunning, ethereal blend of colors. As you can see, this item is in very good condition for its age, with some light overall wear and some oxidation spotting of the brass. There are some bubbles in the glass, including a small nick on the lower piece that I think is from a bubble that burst at the surface (see photo).In addition to the hole in the metal base, there is an extra hole drilled in the glass for a cord. I think that this is just a minor factory error from miscommunication between the glass workers and those who assembled the finished lamps. Please see all photos. Shipped with great care.


I am always available to answer questions about my items, shipment methods, or anything else. Please note, however, that I ask that any special requests (alternate shipping arrangements, alternate methods of payment, international customs matters, etc.) are inquired about before purchase. Payment is expected within 3 days after end of sale, immediately with Buy It Now, and within 24 hours if a \"Buy It Now\" offer is accepted.

I take great care in shipping and make sure that items are properly cushioned and immobilized. Unless otherwise stated, shipping is normally within 3 business days of receiving payment, often sooner. Shipping will be combined if possible to save you on shipping costs.

I try to describe and photograph items comprehensively, but returns are gladly accepted on any item that is not as described (as long as it is in the same condition as when it was sent out). I consider the photos in my listings to be part of the description. If you wish to make such a return, you must send a message to me within 5 days of your receipt of the item. Please note that I take the 5 days after receipt of your item seriously-- please do your part by opening your package upon arrival and checking the contents, then letting me know right away if there is a problem. The buyer pays the return postage for any returns. Returns will not be accepted for any other reason.
