Tiffany Studios New York "Acorn" Floor Lamp
An early and rare example of an "Acorn" leaded glass lamp by Tiffany Studios New York, this wonderful piece features a domed shade of bright green geometric tiles interrupted, at its girdle, by a band of splendid, dancing acorns in various shades of delightful orange and speckled with light green. The tightly grouped acorns alternate between facing upward and downward, and are connected by a thin, leaded vine. The shade is resting within a patinated bronze five-footed harp base, meaning that the shade has a beautiful halo of a border in patinated bronze>
