Creator: Empoli
Offered by: epoca

Description
the tall and striking ribbed art glass lamp of conical form in luminous smoked glass all resting on a brass base; Empoli is known as the other Italian mid-century glass. Simpler in design than their Murano cousins, the simple traditional styles of Empoli glass were quickly adapted to the sparse abstract shapes of mid 20th century modernism. The vast majority of mid century-styled Empoli glass was made for the American market; height: 21.25" (top of glass) 32" (top of shade)
