Tiffany Studios New York "Geometric" Table Lamp
$69,500
This exquisite "Geometric" leaded glass table lamp from Tiffany Studios New York features Louis Comfort Tiffany's well-loved and celebrated geometric patterning, interwoven with sleek design elements that provide an added sense of sophistication and elegance. Two bands seamlessly splice the geometric design in a girdle and bottom stripe of decoration that demonstrate Tiffany Studio's great ability for refined patterning. The shade sits on on a restrained, patinated bronze lion paw's base, adding greatly to the quiet dignity of the piece.
