    This glass shade is massive, measures almost 24" across. The milky color is just stunning. I've inherited it and have no idea what kind of lamp it is. All I've been able to find is on the power brick, which reads RELCO and MADE IN MILAN. Thank you, if anyone might know what this is.

      Relco was founded in 1967 by Giuseppe Pisati. It's now a group of companies that includes Relco, Leuci, VLM, Leonardo & Segno. Relco produces transformers. The lamp itself will be a different matter.
      That shape reminds me of Isamu Noguchi's Akari Light Sculptures, but that was in paper.
      I'll keep looking.
      I think it's a stunner!

      No progress so far. I just hope someone else recognizes the glass.
