Add authentic European heritage and dramatic scale to your space with this mid-19th-century French Demijohn (Dame-Jeanne) glass bottle lamp. Hand-blown in Europe during the 1800s for storing and aging wine, this large-scale carboy vessel features a classic teardrop form with beautiful natural variations, subtle glass bubbles, and an authentic aged patina.
Lamp conversion contains a high quality cork top stopper where the brass wiring harness is mounted. This lamp seamlessly connects historic cellar utility with refined, rustic interior design. Paired with a complementary hand-stitched, rawhide-laced parchment cone shade, it produces a rich, warm ambient glow that fills a room.
