A Contemporary Illuminated Gemstone Inlay Globe Table Lamp - Attributed to Unique Art Since 1996, this contemporary decorative table lamp features an illuminated globe constructed with a detailed gemstone inlay. The oceans are represented by a mottled green mineral, likely aventurine, while the landmasses are formed from various contrasting polished semi-precious stones. The globe surface is printed with bilingual geographical notations in both English and Chinese script, including Pacific Ocean, North, Micronesia, Federated States of Micronesia, Northern Marianas, Guam (U.S.A.), and Wake (U.S.A.). The globe is mounted within a polished brass-tone metal armillary-style frame, surmounted by a faceted clear crystal finial. The assembly is supported by a multi-columnar metal stand on a circular, stepped wooden base with a reddish-brown finish. The lamp is fitted with a black power cord featuring an inline on/off switch and a two-pin European Type C plug.
