Fenton French Opalescent Shade

FENTON French Opalescent Swirl Beaded Edge Lamp

This item was acquired from a highly trusted seller.

The seller provided a clear and detailed description, which I will quote below:

This is a rare model from the French Opalescent line, manufactured in the late 1940s to early 1950s and sold in France.
It features a charming lampshade with a simple and gentle form, reminiscent of lily of the valley.
The lampshade incorporates Fenton's unique Swirl pattern, a rich opalescent white swirl, and their Beaded Edge design, a delicate ruffle resembling a line of tiny beads.
While Fenton's Swirl opalescent pieces often feature the more assertive Ruffle Edge with large, wavy ruffles, this lamp's simple shade shape, combined with the swirl, creates a wonderfully rustic and understated charm that you'll want to admire every day.

While not quite blue opalescent, it possesses a captivating pale, beautiful bluish hue. When exposed to sunlight, it takes on a color with faint iridescence. When lit, the swirl pattern glows with a neon-like brilliance, creating a fantastical beauty.
The exterior is glossy and smooth, while the interior features deep swirl indentations. This design maximizes the beautiful light transmission and shadow play, revealing different expressions each day.
