Vintage Milk Glass Electric Hurricane Lamp with Shade Measures about 10.75" without hurricane glass and 19.5" with it. Very good condition. Areas of tarnish on metal parts. Plug is a little bent but it still works and lights up. No bulb included.
This striking hurricane lamp is a quintessential piece of mid-century lighting, showcasing the timeless appeal of pure white milk glass. Its classic "gone with the wind" silhouette is defined by a matching globose base and dome shade, offering a clean and minimalist aesthetic that focuses on form and material. When illuminated, the opaque glass diffuses the light into a soft, warm glow, creating an inviting atmosphere in any room.
The lamp is anchored by decorative metal fittings that have developed an authentic tarnish over the years, lending a sense of history and depth to the piece. Its impressive height and traditional profile make it a versatile addition to various interior styles, from a cozy farmhouse setting to a more structured Mid-Century Modern space. The clear glass chimney adds a crisp vertical element, completing the stately look. While the vintage plug shows a slight bend, the lamp is fully operational and brings a bright, luminous presence to a sideboard, entryway, or bedside table. The absence of pattern allows the architectural quality of the milk glass to truly shine, making it a sophisticated choice for those who appreciate understated vintage elegance.
