The brilliant lampshades graduating glass ball ribs elegantly radiating outward from the Bronze central suspension frame creates a truly exceptional design when illuminated that looks like strings of tiny lights all throughout from just a small 15W bulb! No doubt this was originally designed as a Kerosene lit lamp judging by the form of the Victorian styled base, and would make perfect sense with the magnificent radiating quality of the numerous glass balls from a small light source. This appears to be an originally updated late 19th century version at the advent of electricity and is an extremely RARE style, matched with its complete unbelievably fine condition it just does not get any better...you will probably never see one like this again!

This impressive lamp is in exceptional original condition, completely intact and fully functional. The extra heavy duty Bronzed ribbed graduating glass ball shade is without issue and appears to be fully intact, the balls are all strung together with metal wire so one could go through each strand and straighten them by hand to perfection if desired. Very mild finish wear to the flashed/enamel body with natural tarnish patina with no obvious signs of damage or repair issues aside from a few edge nicks to the solid Marble platform (mostly on backside, last pic). Original socket (standard size screw in style but appliance size bulb due to shape) has been inspected and appear clean and safe, the power cord has been replaced with rayon wrapped insulated wire with an inline power control switch.
