Description
- Tiffany Studios
- Table Lamp
- shade engraved L.C.T. Favrile
base impressed TIFFANY STUDIOS/NEW YORK/618 - favrile glass and gilt bronze
Condition
Overall in very good condition. The glass shade with a few minute scattered air bubbles and particulate inclusions inherent in the making. The upper rim of the shade with a very minor fleck, which is not visible once the shade is installed in the base. The shade with nice iridization throughout and when viewed with reflected light displays brilliantly saturated luminous colors. The gilt base appears to be in untouched original condition, with an area of scattered, spotty oxidation, concentrated to the base. There is a very minor rubbing to patina on standard and socket arms, consistent with age and gentle handling. The sockets and switches appear to be original.
