Vintage Hoosin Lampworks Tiffany-Style Seashells/Red Floral Table Lamp, 1997
Vintage Hoosin Lampworks Tiffany-Style Seashells/Red Floral Table Lamp, 1997. This gorgeous handcrafted table lamp was made by Hoosin Lampworks, LTD, of Chicago, Illinois, in 1997. It’s in a very attractive spherical Art Nouveau motif; natural seashells with flowers descending from the crown in shades of red, pink and white art glass, with foliage in green art glass. Each shell and section of glass has been hand-selected and camed in soldered copper foil–in the method Tiffany pioneered–with the high quality and attention to detail Hoosin is known for. This specific shade design is no longer made, and hasn’t been for some time, so it’s very difficult to find. The shade sits on its original antique bronze patina base in a tree trunk motif. Well cast, and exceptionally hand-finished, the base has a very heavy and substantial feel. All of the other parts–the antique bronze finial, harp and fittings–are original to the lamp. The dimensions of the shade are 8″ in diameter x 4-3/4″ high; the lamp stands 14″ high from the base to the top of finial; the base is 5″ in diameter. This lamp has been very well cared for and is in very good used condition, with no damage to the shade. There is age-related oxidation to the came on the exterior of the shade. Otherwise, no damage or other problems. The item “Vintage Hoosin Lampworks Tiffany-Style Seashells/Red Floral Table Lamp, 1997″ is in sale since Tuesday, October 9, 2018.
