As the name suggests, gourd retro table lamps are distinctive by the shape of the lamp stand which resembles that of a gourd. The stand is wide near the base and then tapers from below halfway to provide the stand upon which the lampshade will sit.
Gourd table lamps provide a wonderful canvas for intricate design work down on the bowl section that may either be painted in an eye catching design, or else the ceramics may have been given detailed treatment.
There is virtaully an endless supply of gourd retro table lamps ranging in size from the very small to quite large. They can be found in just about any antique store that you walk into. Alternatively you can find them for sale online in most lamp stores.
