The Italian owner of the round lamp you see below on the right suggests it is a German lamp. No marks or label is present, but it is made in a high quality.
Inside the base are two E14 light bulbs. The switch can change between all the lights on, only the top lamp lit or only the bottom lamps burning. And off course all lights off.
Incamiciato: overlay lattimo glass (= milky looking glass) with a layer of transparent coloured glass. A technique first used on the Venetian island Murano, hence the Italian name.
