RARE PAIR OF MURANO GLASS OPALINE TORCH LAMPS. THIS IS A RARE PAIR OF GORGEOUS LAMPS!!
EACH OF THE SHADES IS HAND BLOWN OPALINE DIAMOND QUILTED PATTERN WITH 3 RINGS OF APPLIED GLASS RUFFLES. THE LAMPS ARE A TORCH STYLE AND MEASURE ABOUT 19.5" TALL. THE GLASS SHADES ALONE MEASURE 14" TALL. THE LAMPS ARE UNSIGNED BUT WERE DEFINITELY MADE BY ONE OF THE TOP THREE. THE TWO GLASS SHADES ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION BUT THE BOTTOM EDGE WHERE IT SITS ON THE BASE IS ROUGH AS YOU WOULD EXPECT. THE BASES ARE IN GOOD CONDITION, BUT THE BLACK LACQUER FINISH ON THE WOOD BLOCK IS BEGINNING TO PEEL / BUBBLE. I CAN SEE WHERE IT WAS TOUCHED UP A FEW TIMES OVER THE YEARS. A FEW ADDITIONAL TOUCH-UPS WILL PROBABLY NEED TO BE MADE IN THE FUTURE AS WELL BY THEIR NEW OWNER. BASES COULD ALSO BE EASILY BE DISSASEMBLED AND THE WOOD BLOCKS COULD BE REFINSHED IF DESIRED. THIS WOULD NOT BE DIFFICULT BY ANY MEANS. THE LAMP BASE FEET ARE CAST BRASS AND THE ACCENTS ORMOLU. THERE IS A MARBLE PLATE IN THE CENTER. BASES MEASURE 6" SQUARE.
EACH LAMP WEIGHS ABOUT 6 POUNDS.
PLEASE VIEW ALL PHOTOS. I DO CONSIDER MY PHOTOS AS THE MAJOR PORTION OF ALL OF MY DESCRIPTIONS. PHOTOS ARE WORTH 1000 WORDS!
