Description

Pair of Vintage Fenton Blue Thumbprint Glass Lamps — Ornate Brass Base, Marked “8059”

This striking pair of vintage electric table lamps features vivid aqua blue thumbprint glass shades, attributed to Fenton Art Glass. The shades showcase a handkerchief-style ruffled edge and a distinctive dimpled texture, known as the “thumbprint” pattern—an iconic Fenton design prized by collectors. Each is mounted on an ornate cast brass base, marked “8059,” with rich rococo-style detailing and a warm aged patina. The lamps are fitted with inline switches and standard plugs, offering both charm and functionality.

Perfect as bedside lighting, mantel accents, or statement décor, these lamps blend mid-century American glass artistry with classical European-inspired brasswork. Whether lit or unlit, they make an eye-catching addition to vintage-inspired interiors.

Condition:
In good vintage condition with signs of age and use. The brass bases show discoloration, toning, and some paint overspray. One base is slightly loose but stands stable. Both lamps have been tested and are fully functional, with working inline switches. Please review all photos closely, including a standard soup can for scale.

Dimensions:

  • Overall: 13 1/2" H x 9" W
  • Shade: 6" H x 9" W
