This globe I had for some time now.. but I never realized it was a vaseline lamp.
Only after I recently bought this special lamp to check this out, I noticed..
It looks like a Loetz globe.
Beautiful effect...

Hi Mac, all that glows is not necessarily Loetz
Thank you, BELLIN68.
Thank you, vetraio50.
Thank you, ozamarty.
True..!, not everything glowing is Loetz, but my observation was more grounded on the shape of the rim.... not the fact it is glowing...
This shape is mostly seen on Loetz globes....
Well, I stand corrected....
What a pity, I really thought I had a Loetz here.....
Thank you all for the info.
Ahh..... still a nice shade....
I love this one! I saw it three months ago and thought I had clicked "Love"! Clumsy fingers! Saw it again tonight and decided it had to be loved again. In my heart, this shade is one of your top three most wonderful shades. miKKo
