Rare Austrian Chunk Jewel Art Nouveau Lamp, Early 20th Century. Striking, rare Austrian chunk jewel leaded glass lampshade on an attached jeweled bronze fish base. This stunning, all together mesmerizing and highly prized lamp features a chunk jeweled floral motif, surrounded by red, green and orange jeweled glass pieces for the canopy which sits on a thick bronze support that attaches to the tail fins of the fish. Nearer to base is a twist key to turn on the light to illuminate the chunk glass enhanced base. When viewed from the sides, the heads of the fish become more apparent with their graceful fins, faceted glass eyes and elongated tails elegantly rising to canopy. Circa 1910s with new sockets and wiring replaced likely in the 1960s. 24" x 20" x 8". A very special piece for a discriminating and unique interior. Buyer responsible for third party shipping.
Estimated Value $3,000 - 4,000.
