Tiffany Studios

Overall in very good condition. The shade with approximately 8 cracks to the glass tiles dispersed throughout. The shade leading is beautifully rendered displaying a rich russet brown and green patina. The interior of the shade with white deposits along the lead lines of the floral register. The bronze base is in very good condition with some light rubbing and minor surface abrasions consistent with age and gentle use. The base displays an exceptionally rich russet brown and green patina, and appears to retain its original sockets and paddle switches. The terminals of the three shade arms with minor abrasions marks from surface contact with the shades over the years, which fits snuggly when installed. The shade displays a fully saturated color palette and artistic glass selection distinguished by mottled white and yellow flower heads and exceptionally rich orange and red ground which are offset by the green flower stalks and striated green and orange geometric border tiles.
