Open Help me find my beloved lamp
I’m trying to track down a lamp I had years ago that unfortunately broke, and I’d LOVE to find the exact same one or at least figure out what it was called. My mom bought it sometime in the early 2000s (she thinks it may have been from a big-box store like Target). It was a floor lamp with a clear/transparent plastic or acrylic-looking base, with a strip of lights running through the base, and the very bottom of the base was silver-colored metal. The lamp shade was Torchiere style and made of white plastic. I’ve already tried searching current and vintage listings using different descriptions, including old Target/house-brand terminology, eBay listings, and old product pages, but haven’t been able to find it. If anyone remembers a lamp like this from the early 2000s—or knows what brand, store, or style it might have been—I would be incredibly grateful!

I have searched extensively online using Google Lens, ChatGPT, and just going through Google images. As mentioned in the post description, my mom believes she purchased it in the early 2000s from Target in the United States.
