Murano Lamps

I have an obsession lately, trawling markets and ebay looking for glass Murano lamp bases.
Murano is an tiny island off the coast of Venice, famous for its glass. I went to Rozelle Market in Sydney yesterday hoping to find my pair, there were one or two there but werent quite right....

They are so elegant and add a dash of colour with their organic and individual shapes.

Here are some of the lamps that have caught my eye...they sell on ebay from about GBP 30, not bad really and better than a new lamp in my opinion!






Beautiful and the kind of thing I think you'd always find a spot for and keep forever....
