Description
- Dirk van Erp
- Table Lamp
- base partially stamped [DIRK VAN] ERP within a rectangular closed box below a windmill
- hand-wrought cooper and mica
Condition
Generally very good overall condition. Some scattered surface scratches and imperfections to the patina as expected with age and use. The surface has scattered overall marks from moisture as if the piece were splashed with liquid and would benefit from restoration. The mica appears to be original but has areas of wear, cracking and minor dents as expected. The tabs which hold the mica in place seem original and do not show evidence of repeated movement. The lamp has been re-wired and the sockets and pull switches have been replaced.
