Condition
Overall in very good condition. The glass shade with some light surface scratches and light discolorations scattered throughout. The glass with some scattered air bubbles and inclusions inherent in the making. The metal surfaces with some light rubbing and light discolorations to the high points of the foliate design and the textured surface of the base. The recessed contours of the design with some light surface soiling consistent with age and gentle use. The lamp is electrically stable and fitted with a standard US plug. A wonderfully sculptural example of the artist's work showing a rhythmic foliate design and an artistically textured acid-etched glass shade.
