Orrefors, Carl Fagerlund Lamp











Carl Fagerlund, Orrefors Lamp

A very imposing high quality piece that when illuminated throws an attractive, warm light. The lamp has a brass base, clear glass crystal insert with brown/amber glass shade. The lamp stands approximately 31 cm high, the shade is approx 32 cm in diameter, base approximately 10 cm high with a diameter of 20 cm. The glass pieces are high quality handmade glass. The outer glass shade weighs approximately 1.9 kg, it has some chips to the rim. The outer glass shade is held to the base with three screws. The inner crystal is in perfect condition. This crystal weighs approximately 2.2 kg. The base has been highly polished and perhaps has been plated, the polishing/plating is now somewhat imperfect but still very attractive. The lamp has a basic white lead with a line switch. The lamp has two stickers attributing the design to C. Fagerlund, and another sticker with Orrefors 2210 on it.
