3,750
Here is a rare and beautiful Pittsburgh "pond lilly" very rare art nouveau table lamp. The lamp is properly signed and measures 22" x 16". The lamp has that natural and soul satisfying art nouveau style. Has the "Coralene" style. Which is the Handel patented application of colored glass beads applied in a molten state to the surface of the shade. Gives that deep three dimensional look. Colors are strong and well coordinated, notice the ripply water. Really jaw dropping beauty.
A practical and beautiful and great investment. The Pittsburgh Pilabrasgo Co. was started by Nicholas Kopp in 1900, a chemist known for his knowledge and ability to hand mold and color beautiful lamps that were very popular until 1926 when the company bankrupted. Now the upper end Pittsburgh lamps are popular and command high prices.
