This stunning and artful Art Deco original vintage glass lamp is from the fine and noted German metal company of WMF whose span of decades of business has produced top line pieces in many mediums. It is red glass with swirls and veining of black set against the red sphere ball. It becomes a sea of orange red with hints of amber amoebas floating on and off when it is lite. It is an early one all with original but newly nickeled silver hardware. It has been fully rewired and restored for United States sockets and use. The bulb is on the inside and has the two part socket with the round turn off /on switch. When lite, the most amazing beautiful sculptural glow, color and forms take shape inside almost like sea creatures from the water. The glass portion alone is 12" H x 13" D. Sorry the photos do not do justice to show you the on presentation of gorgeous light and forms. This now just needs a great white drum shade. It is of the period of the 1930s but looks so modern. This is unusual, sculptural and artistic from the time period yet remains modern looking. It makes a great table or side lamp with sculptural internal forms when it is lite. This is a beauty. When it is on at night, the forms are amazing with great color of orange and reds floating amoeba like forms. It is also just beautiful just turned off. It does not seem Art Deco but very modern looking now. This is a sexy lamp...
