- "Spider" Table Lamp
- shade impressed TIFFANY STUDIOS NEW YORK 337-26
base impressed TIFFANY STUDIOS/NEW YORK/337 - leaded glass and patinated bronze
with a "Mushroom" base and a "Spider" finial
Condition
Overall in very good condition. The shade with approximately 11 cracks throughout, all seemingly stable; one tile with a small chip measuring approximately ¼ inch in length. The shade with light surface soiling to the glass and adjacent borders of the shade leading throughout, consistent with age and gentle handling. Nine tiles have been replaced with well-matched period Tiffany glass. The complementary “Mushroom” base displays with a green and brown patina with light surface scratches, minor abrasions and light surface soiling to the recessed areas consistent with age and gentle handling. All three sockets and paddle switches appear to be original and undisturbed. An iconic shade and base pairing with very nice color gradation.
