Tiffany Studios New York "Geranium" Table Lamp
SOLD
A dreamy garden scene in mottled hues, the Tiffany Studios "Geranium" lamp evokes the magic of a Monet waterscape. An aqua and amber ripple glass abstracts the composition and suggests an otherworldly nature, while the large emerald and olive green leaves that dominate the shade anchor the piece and provide a dynamic perspective. Bright crimson geranium flowers are clustered in the conical shade's upper tier, and three bands, two of teal ripple glass and one of mottled olive glass decorate the bottom border. The shade sits on a "Leaf" base.

The combination of ripple and mottled glass makes this piece both a technical tour de force and an enchanting composition in an Impressionist style.
