I arrived back from my Dallas Market trip to find an email in my stuffed Inbox informing me that I was the winner of the Swank Lighting contest. Unbeknownst to me they had the drawing while I was in Dallas. These beautiful Vintage Barovier & Toso Murano glass lamps are more beautiful in person than the picture shows. They are mounted on a wood base that is gold leafed and there are sprinkles of gold dust in the glass. They even have a numbered authentication sticker on them. Thanks Swank Lighting!!!!

ReplyDeleteCongrats Patricia! Great write-up on your win that Swank did on their site...I love stories like that!
ReplyDeleteLove your blog also...I stumbled across your website a few weeks ago...you do fantastic work!
I think your lamps are exceptionally beautiful but didn't feel that way initially, viewing the contest photos, however, when propped against the beautiful setting of your home, I see they are truly beautiful.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on winning the fabulous lamps!
ReplyDeleteThey picked a winner. I know you will do something fantastic with them. Congrats.

ReplyDeleteCongrats! How lovely to to win a prize - and such a beautiful one like that!
ReplyDeleteThanks for all your comments. Winning these beautiful lamps has inspired me to recreate my living room to highlight them....I need just the right end tables to put them on. I need to rearrange the furniture to accomodate these new end tables and I have to get just the right shades to compliment the bases...it is all GOOD!!
ReplyDeletePatricia, I recently had all my Thomas O'Brien for Target table and floor lamps rewired with fabric-covered cord. They look beautifully vintage now, rather 1920s in appearance, with those great lengths of twisted black cord leading to a heavy black plug. Very Charlotte Perriand, I think.
ReplyDeleteThey couldn't have found a better home. I am looking forward to your shades and living room redecoration. How fun and unexpected!
