Description

  • Tiffany Studios
  • "Moth" Lamp Screen
  • leaded glass and patinated bronze chain

Condition

Overall in very good condition. The lamp screen with approximately five cracks to the glass tiles dispersed throughout both wings. Two glass tiles with some minor lifting to the glass adjacent to the cracks. With period chain and hook. The glass shows more variation than in the catalogue illustration and the various tones throughout are more saturated in person. The glass selection is highly artistic and thoughtful, and shows great visual interest and artistic nuance, most notably in the unusual use of Cypriote glass in the decorative banding and moth eyes and the placement of color.
