Tiffany Studios , 10" Favrile Counterbalance Floor Lamp
I probably buy and sell more Tiffany floor lamps than most any dealer, so I'm familiar with all the nuances. This example is special, mostly because the shade is killer. It's 10" diameter green Favrile with very distinct ribbing (a big plus) and a beautifully intaglio-carved insect near the fitter rim. The five-legged counterbalance floor base is very desirable, especially with a rich, original, green-brown patina. Signed on the shade and base. Excellent condition except for some polishing on the fitter rim (of little importance, completely hidden in the fitter, and only mentioned for accuracy).
