Memories











Black matte painted vintage color photo slides make up this one of a kind handmade lamp. Primary colors of this unique lamp range from dark browns, amber, grays and purples. The shade has embellishments of purple and brown glass beads as well as gold plated metal beads. The dangling bead embellishments are approximately 1.5 inches long. The slides are securely pieced together with gold plated jump rings bringing out the color tones of these slide.

The entire lamp is 24.5 inches tall. The shade itself is 10 inches tall with a diameter is 11 inches. The base of the lamp is 4 inches by 4 inches and is painted brown. The whole lamp weighs 2.25 lbs.

The slides are actual photos ranging anywhere from the 50's to the 80's. Photos are of various people and places. Photo slides are mostly clear but do show some wear appropriate for their age.

This lamp makes the perfect table lamp next to any piece of furniture.
