About the Item
20th Century Mamluk Style Green Glass Gold Gilded Mosque Lamp
French, 20th Century
Height 30cm, diameter 22cm
This mosque lamp reflects the centuries-old tradition of illuminating sacred spaces in Islamic architecture. Blown glass lamps such as this became a hallmark of mosque interiors from the 13th century onward, flourishing under Mamluk and Ottoman patronage. Beyond providing light, they symbolized divine illumination, inspired by the Qur’anic ‘Light Verse’ (24:35), and were often elaborately adorned with gilding, enamel, and inscriptions—a testament to both spiritual devotion and artistic skill.
This example features a rounded green glass body, decorated with delicate Arabic motifs in gilt that shimmer softly when lit. The lower portion is fitted with three glass loops, designed for suspension from the ceiling in traditional fashion.
Rich in historical and cultural significance, this mosque lamp is an exceptional piece for collectors, offering both aesthetic beauty and a meaningful connection to Islamic artistic heritage.
