History: A nostalgic mid-century scent or oil diffuser in delicately tinted iridescent glass, formed in the likeness of a miniature table lamp. The body features pressed floral motifs and ribbed panels, while the scalloped dome “shade” bears a charming floral transfer of daisies in warm pink and white tones. Topped with a pierced gold-toned cap, this piece was designed to allow heat or aroma to gently escape when paired with a scented oil insert or warming element within. These were commonly produced for the export market in Japan or Taiwan from the 1960s through the 1980s, blending decorative kitsch with functional home fragrance use.
 
Flaws: Gently Used
