Description
- Tiffany Studios
- Twelve-Light "Lily" Table Lamp Base
base stamped TIFFANY STUDIOS/NEW YORK/382
with twelve modern irridized glass shades- gilt bronze
Condition
Overall in good condition. With considerable oxidation to the gilt surfaces. Retains period switch at the base and with period sockets. One of the sockets is slightly use. The modern shades are not by Tiffany Studios, but executed to appear similar. They are executed in thick glass and the color is slightly more brilliant than Tiffany lily shades. The application of the iridescent surface treatment is not consistent across the shades and sometimes the application is slightly rough. With one cracked socket, that has been removed from the lamp, but will be sold with the piece.
