Tiffany Studios

Overall in very good condition. The shade with approximately 8 cracks to the glass tiles dispersed throughout, including one glass tile to the lower geometric register with multiple fractures. The patinated bronze base displays an exceptionally rich and vibrant green and russet brown patina. The patinated bronze surfaces on the base with a few surface scratches and abrasions, light surface wear and rubbing to the patina. The standard above the original oil font, socket cluster and finial are later. All the sockets and paddle switches appear to be period. A fine example of the model, displaying a harmonious shade and base pairing, and a deeply saturated glass selection distinguished by the vigorously mottled vibrant orange background glass.
