A light amber coloured glass mosque lamp, late 19th/early 20th century, with trailed blue calligraphic and geometric band decoration, with three suspension lugs supported by chains and with lower drop pendant with applied blue prunt Width approximately 28 cm, height 36 cm (see illustration). CONDITION REPORT: On one shoulder there is a very fine surface scratch approximately 9 cm long. We do not believe this to be a crack as it cannot be felt on the interior. One of the suspension lugs has a firing flaw leaving a small fingernail patch of the surface slightly raised and slightly grazed. The suspension wire holding the lower globe has been replaced. Other than those mentioned there appear to be no further obvious faults.
