The lamp features an elongated, gracefully twisted form in soft pink lattimo glass, enriched throughout with authentic gold aventurine inclusions embedded within the glass during the blowing process. The surface displays subtle tonal variations and depth, a hallmark of high-quality mid-century Murano production.

At the base, three finely hot-applied sculpted glass flowers encircle the column. Executed in translucent glass with delicate internal striations and warm golden highlights, these elements are seamlessly fused to the body, demonstrating a high level of artisanal skill. The flared foot is well proportioned and elegantly finished, providing both stability and visual balance.

The lamp retains its original brass socket and harp holder, exhibiting a light, even patina consistent with age. Electrically tested and fully functional. Shade not included.

An elegant and decorative example of mid-century Italian Murano artistry, equally suited to a refined interior, a Hollywood Regency setting, or as a sculptural accent in a contemporary space.
