Spelter Early
twentieth-century Art Nouveau and Art Deco figures and lamps were often made of
spelter. The metal has been used since about the 1860's to make statues, and
lamps that resemble bronze.
In the second decade of the 20th century increases in the production of spelter arose from copper production being utilized for military munitions during WWI. There was a lack of copper for bronze-making thus pushing forward spelter as a notable decorative material of choice. There are beautiful examples of craftsmanship from this era.
I DO MY BEST TO DESCRIBE EVERY LISTING
BUT I AM NOT AN EXPERT AND ITEMS ARE SOLD “AS IS”. My idea of great/good may be different than yours,
so EXAMINE PHOTOS CAREFULLY since they are binding and a
supplement to the word description in case, I should miss something.
If I fail to mention something, it does not qualify as “item not as described”
if it shows in my pictures. EACH PHOTO IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS AND THEY
ARE OF THE EXACT ITEM YOU WILL RECEIVE.
