glass lamp

See-through light fixture

A glass lamp is a lamp with a glass body, shade, or both.

The term usually suggests decorative rather than purely functional lighting—often a table lamp with a colored or patterned glass shade, like Tiffany-style lamps, or one with a translucent glass base.

The antique glass lamp cast a warm glow across the room.
