About the Item

A dramatic armature table lamp with a textured painted wood base displaying a Persian Kulah Khud helmet and a black silk shade overlaid with a Lurex casement. The iron helmet is heavily engraved with figures and Arabic script and has a chain mail neck guard. As the nose guard is fixed, it appears to be a 19th century ceremonial Kulah Khud that was later incorporated into this lamp.

Pair of Table Lamps Made from Moser Glass Decanters with 1970s String Shades
By Moser Glassworks
Located in Palm Desert, CA
A striking and sculptural pair of table lamps crafted from richly detailed Moser glass Turkish decanters, featuring elaborate gold-accented floral etching and faceted stoppers (17") dramatically repurposed as finials.

These unique lamps are paired with their original circa 1970s string lampshades, which emit a warm, ambient glow and enhance the textural interplay between glass, metal, and fiber. The amber-pink hue of the glass shifts subtly with the light, showcasing Moser's renowned craftsmanship and timeless elegance. Ideal for collectors of fine glass or anyone seeking statement lighting with a layered sense of history and design.
