Nice work! At some point how about a variation without the cover and/or a broken cover?
Nice clean form, suitable for a gentleman's study or the local tavern.
But you missed the chimney which is cut off the top of the reference image, the chimney is a second glass bulb/tube inside the glass shade:

this same model can be textured with a glass base:

Lovely, thanks for the references ulf. A physicist friend of mine scolded me that due to the perspective in the original photo, I've modelled the base way smaller than any sane victorian would create. At the moment it's a fire-hazard.
Edit: I've fixed the small base and missing chimney issues.
