Table lamp with a bronze base and shade. The base is composed of a large rounded glass section with yellow vertical bands supported on a base with three legs that have scrollwork on the ends. The top of the base has decorative bronze work. A shaft rises from the center and supports a shade. The shade is made from sections of bronze with geometric cutouts creating a stained glass appearance in shades of amber and orange. The bottom edge of the shade has rows of small bronze beads. The background is gray with a white area on the left and a darker area on the right where a shadow falls.
