Georges Jouve

Good overall condition. Please note this offering comprises two lamps, and only one is shown in the catalogue illustration. One lamp with a very minor restoration to midsection of the base that has been sensitively restored. The other lamp when examined under blacklight shows no evidence of prior restoration. This lamp has a minor shallow irregular area, inherent to the making to one side on the upper section of the base. The surfaces of each lamp present with minor irregularities, including minute burst air bubbles, inherent in the material and production technique. The lamps have each been fitted with later well-proportion paper shades. The bases each present with a rich, highly detailed and tactile surface when viewed in person. A pair of large scale table lamps with great presence.
