Description

Spaghetti Glass Torchiere Accent Lamp, Brass-Tone Base, 3-Way

Mid-century torchiere-style accent lamp pairing a flared white cased-glass shade decorated with the signature "spaghetti string" black drizzle over a stepped brass-tone trumpet base. The hand-applied filament trails — a hallmark of late 1940s and 1950s American glass lighting — read graphic against the milky ground when unlit, then dissolve into a warm pink and amber glow when illuminated, projecting light upward through the open flare.

Wiring runs through the stem to a knurled 3-way turn-switch at mid-shaft and exits the base through a brown vintage cord with two-prong plug. Single socket interior, bulb not included.

CONDITION Good. Fully functional and tested. Brass-tone base shows scratches and finish wear/loss with age-appropriate patina concentrated on the stepped lower section and along the rim. Glass shade is clean with no visible chips or cracks; original cord and 3-way turn-switch remain intact.
