A stunning antique Handel Era reverse painted glass lamp in need of rewiring and a little TLC. We saw this and could not leave it even though it needs a little work....it will really be worth it when it is finish. This 1900-1910 table lamp has a panoramic farmhouse scene with stream and sunset with snow drifts. The bright, colors range from brilliant yellow and sunset orange, to fading pinks and deep blues with hints of periwinkle. The lamp is very solid and well made.
The glass panels are in Good condition with no chips, cracks or flakes seen. The metal body appears to have a coppery finish on it with a nice patina. We usually spend a little more time cleaning items but we are trying to get our overflow of stock out so we only did a quick wipe down. The remnants of the cloth covered original cord are still attached to the lamp but it is majorly frayed and there is no plug. We left the old cord on the fixture as it helps date the piece c1900-1910.
