About the Item

An exceptional and rare hanging lamp featuring a finely detailed crocodile wrapped around a mosaic glass sphere, crafted using the Tiffany technique. The crocodile is rendered with remarkable realism, its body decorated with red glass cabochons that add a dramatic and luxurious touch. The globe is composed of meticulously cut geometric glass tiles, which shimmer beautifully when illuminated, creating a warm and captivating glow. The piece is suspended from robust bronze chains, enhancing its presence and giving it a strong architectural feel. Dating from around 1920, this lamp is not only a functional lighting fixture but also an imaginative work of art. Its bold design and exceptional craftsmanship make it a statement piece for eclectic interiors and a prized find for collectors of rare decorative lighting.
