Val Saint Lambert Pink Crystal Table Lamp with Custom Silk Shade, c. 1950s

10” Diameter x 19”H

A striking example of Belgian craftsmanship, this mid-century table lamp by Val Saint Lambert (c. 1950s) marries sculptural elegance with luxurious detailing. The lamp features a heavy, hand-blown crystal body characterized by a sophisticated "sommerso" gradient, shifting from a deep cranberry at the core to a soft, translucent rose. Its twisted, fluted neck flows organically into a distinctive six-lobed base, creating a refractive depth that captures light beautifully and reveals a stylized floral profile from beneath.

Elevating the piece for modern interiors, the lamp is topped with a new, custom-gathered silk lampshade in a complementary blush tone. The shade utilizes a tight, diagonal knife-pleat texture that provides a rich visual contrast to the smooth, glossy glass below. The silhouette is crowned with a new spherical crystal finial mounted on polished brass hardware, echoing the transparency of the lamp's base. Fully restored and professionally rewired with a new socket and cord, this piece is a turn-key lighting solution that brings a warm, curated glow to any space.
