This lamp is a hand-blown art glass piece signed by Allison K. West. The signature appears on a metal tag attached to the cord. West is known for her sculptural glass designs, which often incorporate organic forms and contrasting colors.
The lamp’s structure features a flared conical shade with a jagged, asymmetrical rim. The glass transitions from an opaque white base to an amber-toned upper section with dispersed inclusions. A dark brown glass ribbon spirals around the body, terminating in applied glass nodes. The lamp is supported by a thick, clear glass base, which provides stability while complementing the translucent lower section.
West’s glasswork demonstrates a combination of traditional and experimental techniques, emphasizing texture and form. The controlled application of contrasting glass elements and the organic shaping of the shade reflect her distinct approach to contemporary studio glass design.
