Gothic Murano STYLE Amber Art Blown Glass Caged Swag Light Lamp Mexico Iron.
This amber wrought iron caged glass swag lamp is in good vintage condition. This caged blown glass was made in Mexico in the Murano style. The wrought iron cage is welded, and an expert glass artist blew the amber glass into the cage, creating this one of a kind piece of art glass.
It has been wired for indoor use with a 15 foot cord, it has an on off switch about 4 feet from the polarized plug.
This swag lamp comes with 5 feet of black chain.
There is a 4 inch opening that will accommodate a very large bulb. The artist handcrafted the iron and created the cap for the cage, this cap will only fit properly one way.
The glass is 18 inches deep, and has a beautiful dark amber bottom and golden amber top where the glass was blown thinner. The glass has many bubbles within it, none larger than a quarter. These bubbles give this art glass personality and add interesting shadows to the light the glass casts. I've tried to capture these beautiful bubbles on photograph, the photos can not do this piece justice!
The glass is about 16 inches wide from bubble to bubble at its widest part.
Cage around glass is 22 inches long excluding top and tassel. Including top and tassel this beautiful creation is over 2 feet long!
Some of the iron has begun to rust, this is only visible on the inside of the glass. Some of the powder coat has come free from the iron and stuck to the glass, I believe this happened while the glass was being blown into the cage. These flecks can be removed with a fingernail and patience if desired.
This glass is not symmetrical, the cage is; this can be seen best from below.
The glass has several small scratches that I didn't even notice until I began looking for flaws. These scratches are photographed well and can be seen in the last photos.
It is photographed with a recessed lighting light bulb, the light bulb is not included.
This lamp will be shipped wrapped securely within a thick Styrofoam container, that container cradled within a heavy duty box. That box can come directly to you, if you buy it now!
