Travel the globe with style! Inspired by our love of travel across the world, this lamp features 265 pieces of handcut stained glass artfully arranged to form the continents and oceans of the earth. Each piece of glass has been soldered together using the copper foil method made famous by Louis Comfort Tiffany in the early 1900s. Suspended from a half-circle metal base with ornate stand in typical globe-fashion. A perfect table lamp for a world traveler or scholar, this piece will look wonderful in any room of your home - from the living room to a library or den. Access the bulb within the globe by loosening a small screw located at the top and gently slide the shade to reveal the socket.
