Blue Shattaline Table Lamp with Spun Fibreglass Shade, 1960s Vintage

An exceptional example of this 60s style icon, this is an unusual blue Shattaline table lamp with matching spun fibreglass shade. 
 
'Shattaline' was an English company which patented a process to create 'shattered' resin, giving it a beautiful 3 dimensional pattern which glitters in the light. Lamps were one of the most popular items made from the resin, along with paperweights and other decorative items. Shattaline lamps were often paired with these shades, made from spun fibreglass, and they complement each other perfectly. 
 
The lamp base is in shades of blue and teal with splashes of sea green. It has a brass neck and lamp holder, and white flex. The base of the lamp is covered in original 'velvet' paper to protect your tabletop. It takes a standard bayonet cap bulb (B22). 
 
The lamp base and shade are in almost perfect condition without cracks or chips - the only signs of its age are a patina to the brass and slight wear to the velvet paper underneath. The lamp is in good working order, however for all vintage lighting we suggest that buyers consult a professional to reassure themselves of safety before use.
