Tiffany Studios New York "Damascene Counter-Balance" Floor Lamp
$39,500
This Tiffany Studios New York glass and bronze floor lamp, features a shimmering twisted midnight blue and amber "Damascene" glass shade suspended from a patinated bronze "Counter-Balance" floor base. The "Counter-Balance" base is just that; an elegant architectural feat in which it appears that the beautiful, delicate "Damascene" shade is countered perfectly by the resolute bronze globe at the base of the lamp arm that counters the weight of.
