Hand blown art glass cone table lamp with thick white stripes and alternating thin clear stripes. Internal socket and white lamp cord with on/off switch. Conical glass with curved tip. Open bottom with recessed lip. Murano, is an island in Venice, where Italian glass blowers have lived and worked on the island since the middle ages. Some pieces that were made after 1980 contain a label that bears the trademark of the Venice Glass Consortium. The Venice Glass Consortium, or Vetri Murano, is an organization of glassmakers on the island of Murano. A creation of the Venice Craftsmen's Association, it helps to control the authenticity and quality of Murano pieces. The trademark label bears the words "vetri murano" in old style lower case Italianate letters. The initials "vm" are repeated to the right of the name, and underneath the name "murano," the same name appears again, but inverted.
