ANTIQUE BENT SLAG GLASS TABLE LAMP With FILIGREE OVERLAY! HANDEL, B&H, TIFFANY ERA
THIS IS AN EXQUSITE, HIGHLY ORNATE ANTIQUE (ART NOUVEAU PERIOD) LARGE BENT SLAG GLASS TABLE LAMP. THE LAMP IS ACTUALLY A 19TH CENTURY CONVERTED GAS LAMP, AND IT IS IN TERRIFIC CONDITION. THE SLAG GLASS SHADE HAS AMAZING CURVES IN THE TWO TONE GREEN SLAG WITH DRAMATIC GILDED BRASS OVERLAY. THIS SHADE DEFINES THE TERM “BENT SLAG”! WE DID NOT SEE A NAME ON THE BASE, HOWEVER IT HAS A CENTURY WORTH OF PATINA ON THE BRASS AND WE DID NOT WANT TO RUIN THE LAMP BY POLISHING IT. THE BASE HAS GREEN FELT OVER IRON. IN THE 7TH PHOTO YOU CAN SEE WHERE THE WIRE IS COMING OUT OF THE BASE. THAT IS WHERE THE “GAS KEY” WOULD HAVE BEEN TO ALLOW THE INFLOW OF GAS. THE SHADE IS DUSTY BUT IS IN TERRIFIC CONDITION. IT FEATURES 8 BENT SLAG PANELS WITH AMAZING SWIRLS OF GREEN COLOR IN THE GLASS. THE SHADE IS UNIQUE BECAUSE THE DARKER GREEN PANELS ARE SLIMMER. THE SHADE HAS FANTASTIC GILT OVER BRASS OVERLAY WITH SOME WEAR TO THE ORIGINAL GOLD GILDING. IN THE 6TH PHOTO WE TRIED TO SHOW THE WONDERFUL CURVES IN THE GLASS. IN THE LAST PHOTO YOU WILL SEE THAT THERE IS ONE SPOT WHERE THE STAMPED GILT OVERLAY IS SCRUNCHED SLIGHTLY. THE WIRING & PLUG ARE IN NICE CONDITION AS WELL. THE SOCKETS HAVE DOUBLE CHAIN PULLS AND IN THE PHOTOS WE ONLY HAD A 40 WATT BULBS IN THEM. AGAIN THE LAMP HAS THE ORIGINAL CLOTH SHEETHED WIRE AND PLUG FROM THE 1910-20′S WHEN IT WAS ORIGINALLY CONVERTED. THERE ARE LIGHT FRAYS ON THE CLOTH. IN THE 11TH PHOTO YOU WILL SEE HOW THE LAMP SITS IN THE ORIGINAL RING ON THE GAS BASE. IN ORDER TO TAKE THE SHADE ON AND OFF THE LAMP YOU HAVE TO REMOVE THE LIGHT BULBS AND LIFT THE RING UP AND OVER THE SOCKETS UNTIL IT IS FREE. IN THE 7TH PHOTO YOU CAN SEE THAT THERE IS NO TOPPER ON THE BASE, BUT THERE PROBABLY NEVER WAS ONE WHEN THEY CONVERTED IT. THE ANTIQUE LAMP MEASURES 23 3/4 ” TALL, AND THE SHADE IS ABOUT 14 1/4 ” WIDE. WHEN I WAS MEASURING I NOTICED SOME OF THE BRASS LOOPS ON THE BOTTOM OF THE SHADE ARE BENT SLIGHTLY. WE MAKE SURE THAT WE MEASURE TWICE AND DO OUR BEST TO DESCRIBE EACH ITEM. FEEL FREE TO CHECK OUT OUR OTHER LISTINGS FOR SOME FUN AND RARE ITEMS!
