Close-up photos are included to clearly show the excellent condition of this vintage Indiana Glass / Tiara Exclusives Chantilly fairy lamp, including the ruffled chimney top, scalloped shade edge, pedestal base, and pressed floral glass details. These detailed images help show that the piece is complete and intact with no chips or cracks, while also highlighting the beautiful diamond-quilt texture, embossed floral panels, and ornate two-piece fairy lamp silhouette.

One of the most beautiful details on this Indiana Glass / Tiara Exclusives Chantilly fairy lamp is the ornate two-edge shade design.

The top rim, often described as the chimney, has a tightly flared ruffled / pie-crust edge around the upper opening where heat from a candle can escape. The bottom rim has a wider scalloped umbrella-like skirt that drapes gracefully over the pedestal base.

This gives the lamp the look of a miniature vintage table lamp rather than the simpler oval “egg” style fairy lamp. Collectors often favor this silhouette because it has more visual presence, more decorative detail, and a more ornate display shape.

The combination of the ruffled chimney top, scalloped shade, floral Chantilly pattern, diamond-quilt texture, and UV-reactive clear glass makes this a especially charming example for fairy lamp collectors, glow glass collectors, and vintage glass display.


Vintage Indiana Glass / Tiara Exclusives Chantilly fairy lamp in clear pressed glass with a rare UV-reactive glow.
This beautiful two-piece candle lamp combines delicate floral detail, diamond-quilt “sandwich glass” texture, scalloped edges, and pedestal form — the kind of vintage glass piece collectors love because it is decorative, functional, and increasingly hard to find complete.

This is a classic Indiana Glass Chantilly pattern fairy candle lamp, made for Tiara Exclusives and produced primarily during the vintage party-plan glassware era of the 1970s–1990s. The lamp includes both pieces: the domed scalloped shade and the coordinating pedestal base.


🌸 Design & Pattern Details

This fairy lamp features the elegant Chantilly pattern, known for its pressed floral medallions set against an intricate diamond-quilt background. The clear glass has a refined “sandwich-style” look with raised embossed flowers, textured panels, and softly scalloped lower edges around the shade.

The lamp has a beautiful old-fashioned silhouette with a round pedestal base, narrow stem, and domed upper shade designed to hold a tea light, votive, or battery-operated candle.


🔦 UV Reactive Glow Glass

One of the most desirable features of this clear glass fairy lamp is its UV reactivity. Many vintage clear glass pieces from Indiana Glass / Tiara-era production glow under a 365nm UV blacklight because of trace manganese in the historical glass formula.

Under blacklight, this lamp can reveal a striking green glow, making it especially appealing to:


🕯️ Why Collectors Love This Piece

This is more than a candle holder — it is a collectible vintage glass fairy lamp with strong decorative presence.

Fairy lamps are especially desirable because complete two-piece examples are harder to find over time. The domed shade and pedestal base were often separated, misplaced, or broken. Finding both original coordinating pieces together in wonderful condition makes this a much better collectible example.

When lit with a tea light or small LED candle, the pressed glass catches and scatters the light beautifully, creating soft reflections through the floral and diamond-textured pattern. It is perfect for a mantel, vanity, bedside table, holiday display, cabinet of curiosities, tea table, or vintage glass collection.


📜 History & Collectibility

Indiana Glass Company was one of the best-known American pressed glass manufacturers, producing decorative and functional glassware for homes across the United States. Tiara Exclusives sold many Indiana Glass pieces through home parties, making patterns like Chantilly especially recognizable to vintage glass collectors today.

The Chantilly fairy lamp remains popular because it blends several desirable collecting categories: pressed glass, clear glow glass, fairy lamps, floral glass, and nostalgic 1970s–1990s home decor.
