'Laburnum' Table Lamp, circa 1918

The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.

Overall good condition consistent with age and gentle use. The glass shade presents with gradient emerald green to white leaves, navy blue sky, and tan, white, and light green petaled flowers. When illuminated, the shade presents with vibrant light orange, beige and light green petaled flowers with emerald green leaves set against a light blue sky. Please note the blue colors in the shade are less saturated in hue than originally published. Please contact the department for further images. The glass used is period glass selected by Tiffany Studios. Approximately four glass tiles with cracks. Some tiles with light surface scratches and dirt to recessed areas.

The 'Twisted Vine' base presents with its apparently original chocolate brown patina with green undertones. The base with light surface scratches, dirt to recessed areas and scattered areas of light oxidation. Base with three light cluster with unmarked replaced paddle switches and replaced sockets. The wheel and heat cap appear to be original. The riser, which cannot be disassembled, appears to be replaced. The riser with an uneven surface which subsequently makes the shade rest slightly uneven.

Please note that although the lamp appears to be in working condition, Christie’s does not guarantee the functionality of the electrical components.
