This Model G-41 electric table lamp from the mid-1930s showcases the classic "Pineapple" design by the Mantle Lamp Company. The body is crafted from Alacite glass, a signature semi-opaque material designed to resemble the rich texture of ivory or alabaster. A hand-painted peach and beige scalloped pattern covers the glass body, resting on a clean, multi-tiered square pedestal base. The lamp has been carefully re-wired with a period-appropriate, brown cloth-covered cord. The original brass socket and harp are intact, ready to be paired with a shade of your choice. Some of the hand painting has been worn away, please review photos.
The Mantle Lamp Company of America, widely known by its brand name "Aladdin," was founded in Chicago in 1908. While famous for their highly efficient kerosene mantle lamps that brought bright light to rural homes, the company expanded into electric lighting as power grids spread in the 1930s. Their proprietary Alacite glass became a hallmark of their electric line, praised by designers of the era for its unique warmth and luminous quality. Today, Aladdin lamps are highly sought after by collectors for their historical importance and lasting manufacturing quality.
