 Large  Empoli Art Glass Lamps · Made in Italy · Smoky Quartz Glass · Gold Leaf Bases & Finials

Step into the warmth and elegance of old-world Italy with this extraordinary pair of midcentury Empoli art glass lamps, hand-crafted in Tuscany with that unmistakable sculptural beauty collectors adore. Their tall, curving silhouettes are formed from rich smoky quartz (also known as smoky topaz) Italian art glass, a moody, jewel-toned color that glows softly when lit and instantly elevates any room.

Each lamp sits upon its original gilded, gold-leafed stepped base, a classic midcentury Italian design element that adds gravitas, glamour, and just the right touch of Hollywood Regency. A delicate red “Made in Italy” export label remains on one lamp — a charming detail affirming their authentic midcentury European origin. Coordinating gold finials complete the ensemble.

These lamps are showstoppers: elegant, atmospheric, and beautifully collected. They blend effortlessly into grandmillennial, traditional Southern, European cottage, and Regency-inspired homes — the kind of lighting that makes a room feel instantly storied.
