This Fenton Art Glass hurricane lamp is a breathtaking collectible. Exuding vintage elegance, it looks as though it belongs on the set of "Gone with the Wind". This is a special opportunity to have a coveted and rare Fenton original in your own collection!

This piece measures 20 inches tall and is supported at the bottom by an exquisite footed metal base. It has a deep bronze coloring with an intricate pattern of Victorian embellishments, complete with four clawed feet.

A stunning glass body fits perfectly into the round base. The creamy white opaque base provides the perfect backdrop to the rich detailing of the design. This piece is impeccably crafted, with a spherical shape, textured by curving lines and Victorian garnishing. Three majestic lions heads are embossed on the sides of the glass lamp body; their design includes a flowing mane, penetrating eyes, and big-cat ears. The piece is formed in such a way that the lion heads extend from the surface so they look as though they are leaping from the lamp. Contrasting with this powerful design is a delicate floral pattern, which also grace the sides of the glass body. The floral pattern features exquisite pink rose flower buds that are surrounded by soft green leaves - all of which has been painstakingly hand-painted onto the surface.

Attached above the body is the metal bulb socket, made of the same bronze-colored metal that was used on the base. It features a subtle cut out leaf design border and an embellished switch. A clear glass chimney fits neatly into this space, ensconcing the lightbulb.

The stunning details of this piece just keep coming! A classically beautiful lamp shade fits neatly over the chimney and bulb, completing this breathtaking antique design. The shade is made of glass and is shaped like a perfect globe, with cut-out circles at the top and bottom to allow the chimney through. This design matches the lamp's body, featuring a white base with an embossed lion's head design on either side. It also includes the delicate floral pattern.

This genuine Fenton piece is in great working condition. It has a tiny flea-bite superficial chip on one of the lion's eyebrows. please note that this chip does not go through the glass - it is on the surface only! There are also some minor rough edges on the ends of the globe and a few tiny black specks on the lions' heads. Please refer to the photos to get a true feel of this lamp's condition... and to admire its incredibly rich design!

With this piece in your collection, you will have much more than collectible: you will have a keepsake. This Fenton Art Glass hurricane lamp is a truly once-in-a-lifetime find.
