Glass ID: lamp



Hello,

I've looked through your catalogs and cannot see something that exactly matches
a lamp I just purchased at an auction. It's very large - 47 inches from base to
top of the finial. Shade is 20 inches across by 15 inches high and I believe is
original to the lamp. I've uploaded some photos to this address:https://www.icloud.com/photostream/#A8532ODWBUheu
I'd appreciate any help you could offer. It's an extraordinary lamp and I'd love
to know more about it.


Thank you,
H

  1. Hello,

    most Blenko lamps were made from regular catalog pieces that were converted. This lamp looks to be made from a 6535 piece.

  2. I own 10 lamps
    none of the ten are in the catalogs
    They were made after 69 and
    made of blenko vases - from the line.
    Not unusual to find a lamp not
    listed in catalog

  5. A few months ago V put up all the Blenko catalogs on the www.blenkoproject.org web pages
    you can search these and you will always find your blenko.
    I have now labeled over 300 pieces of my collection using this web site.
    We all owe V a large debt. Thank you V.

  7. Glassdoc you overdosed on the Grapefruit juice this is a duplicate post.
    Now for more serious issues: Photos from the Warehouse Sale? Can you go or ask Blenko for some photos?
    #2 The hours? Why not be open on Sundays?
    Thank you.

    G Please send photos of your 10 lamps I adore lamps and see very few.
