Abstract
An ornamental lamp adapted to cause circulation of air in a room between the floor and the ceiling of the room. The ornamental lamp includes a hollow light permeable structure defining a vertical air flow passage and has as open upper end and an open lower end. A light source is supported in the hollow structure, and means are provided for shielding a portion of the inner surface of the hollow structure from heat radiated from the light source. The shielding means comprises a sleeve having an open upper end and an open lower end. The sleeve is spaced inwardly from the inner surface of the hollow structure and defines an air flow passage between the sleeve and the hollow structure.
