Leaded Glass Table Lamp by Handel, circa 1905

A very nice clean example of a leaded glass table lamp from the early part of the 20th century. The lamp was made by Lamb Bros. The ring on the top of the shade was done by Lamb Bros. The heat cap and finial are also the work of Lamb Bros. It's an antique leaded glass made famous by Tiffany. The floral shade is colorful and has just a couple, (I see just 2) that are closed and secure, not uncommon on these lamps. The condition is actually amazing as it has no broken tiles. The base is very art nouveau and a particularly nice example. A really nice antique lamp...

This beautiful example is the work of the genius glass and lamp maker Louis Comfort Tiffany. The bronze base has a rich warm factory patina and is properly signed under the base. The three iridescent hand blown gold shades are original. They too are all signed "L.C.T., his initials, and that is how he signed his hand blown glass. Be aware that most of these lamps are not sold with the original signed shades which decreases the value by more than half. If you want Tiffany lamps, it's a good idea to have his glass, because that is where is genius was unmatched. A wonderful lamp for someone who wants an authentic Tiffany lamp.
