FULL DESCRIPTION

This elegant late 20th century (circa 1980s–1990s) fluted crystal table lamp features a substantial vertically ribbed crystal column resting on a square crystal plinth and warm brass base. The silhouette is refined and architectural, blending Neoclassical structure with transitional versatility.

Standing 31 inches tall, the lamp has been paired with a new 18-inch warm ivory linen drum shade (18” diameter at top and bottom), intentionally selected to modernize the traditional fluted form and balance its height. A clear crystal finial completes the profile.

Fitted with a solid brass three-way socket and metal turn key, the lamp allows adjustable lighting levels for bedroom, living room, or entry placement. It retains its original molded polarized plug featuring a distinctive pull-tab detail — a functional and charming period element preserved as part of its vintage character.

This piece was acquired from the Estate of Linda W. in Springville, California, alongside several well-preserved vintage lighting pieces reflecting a carefully maintained decorative collection.

A substantial and versatile statement lamp — equally at home on a bedside table, console, or living room accent.

CONDITION REPORT

Very good vintage condition.

The fluted crystal column and square plinth are in excellent condition, with no observed chips, cracks, or structural damage. The crystal remains clear and bright with crisp vertical fluting and strong light refraction, indicative of high-quality decorative crystal.

Brass components show minor age-appropriate patina and subtle tonal variation consistent with vintage condition and have been lightly polished to maintain a warm, even glow without over-restoration.

The lamp retains its original molded polarized plug with distinctive pull-tab detail — a functional and charming period feature intentionally preserved as part of its vintage character. Fully functional three-way brass socket with metal turn key.

Fitted with a new 18” warm ivory linen drum shade selected to complement the lamp’s proportions and update its silhouette.
