Pretty nice to find an unusual light, with hard-to-find shades, still in this condition. Normally these lights have opal white or simple frosted shades....but here we have the Art Glass type shades that are often called Puffy after the Pairpoint works glass offerings. The design is actually “puffed” out and then hand colored. Very attractive. Circa 1910 - 1920, it has been restored to fine condition and as can be seen, makes a great statement as to the antiquity of the light. For the photographs, we used low wattage bulbs to take the pictures so the automatic lens would not be blown-out by the strong light. Naturally, when you place normal bulbs into this chandelier, the shades will glow nicely and more warmly. This chandelier has been completely re-wired, with new sockets and all new wire, in our UL listed workshop. Measurements: The overall chandelier height is 31 1/2”. The diameter is 25”, shade tip to shade tip. $1,320.00 for the complete set with shades, and having been completely restored, re-wired and ready to hang...plus $50.00 for careful packaging and shipping within the contiguous 48 states. Residents of Alaska/Hawaii, and International Customers: additional shipping costs will be invoiced separately before shipment. Please contact us if you would like a shipping quote before purchase. We will be happy to oblige!   « Less

Probably 1940 or so...this over the sink light has lot of design and style appeal. Judging by the original socket and wiring, which we replaced in our UL shop, it does have age to it. This fixture takes two normal medium based light bulbs in a porcelain double socket. The plug at the bottom has been stubbed off, and is not live. We consider it dangerous, since we believe that the only plugs that should be allowed in a bathroom should be GFI protected. This fixture mounts on a normal crossbar, with two decorative knobs that can be seen in one of the pictures. The shades are opal white, with lots of nice embossed decor. Very stylish. Measurements: 14” wide by 6” high. The backplate has a footprint of 9 3/4” x 5 1/4”. Price: $295.00 complete and ready to go with a mounting kit...plus $25.00 for careful packing and shipping to addresses within the contiguous 48 states.

For Sale is a lovely vase made by Fratelli Toso (Murano) of Italy. This Handkerchief Vase is a nice cabinet size as it stands 3 " (76.20 mm) tall and is 3 1/2" (88.90 mm) in diameter at its widest point. The Vase displays a squat form with a 7 ruffled top that is even or level at the top border. This was known as "Fazzoletto" or (Handkerchief) shaped. It is further decorated with vertical Pink and White Latticino Ribbon decoration that comes out from the Pontil underneath and rises to the top even border. These ribbons wrap around each other and look like a chain link. This strongly resembles Ribbon Candy. There is also a metallic speckled gold ribbon that divides each chain link shape ribbon and this is known as "Adventurine". This is right in the middle of each ribbon and was very hard to capture with my camera. The Vase is considered to be in excellent condition as there are no cracks, nicks, chips or dings. There is a small Pontil Scar on the bottom. The Vase is not signed but the decoration is a well documented decor by Fratelli Toso (Murano) Italy done during the Mid Century Era. More than likely this had a paper label at one time. This Italian Art Glass Vase was made Circa 1950-1959. I was told by an Italian Glass expert this Style Vase is often Confused as being made by Venini. The difference between them is the way the top of the Vase is formed. The Venini Vases were pulled above the rim and not even like the Fratelli Toso ones. The Fratelli Toso are much Rarer than the Venini ones.   « Less

For Sale is a beautiful piece of Art Glass made by Legras of Paris, France. This is a beautifully Acid Etched Cameo Enameled Vase. The Vase has some size to is as it stands 7 3/4" tall and is approximately 7 1/4" in diameter at the shoulder. The opening at the top of the vase is 3 3/4" outside diameter. The Vase depicts wonderful pattern of acid etched enamel flowers in a Cranberry Red color. These are set against an acid etched frosted bark textured background. These Flowers in the vase resemble a Dogwood Tree in full blood. The detail is just wonderful as you can see the veining and the pistils in the Flowers.

The Vase is signed "Legras" in a acid cut cipher along the front lower section. The bottom is also signed "Ovington New York France" in blocked acid etched letters just outside the pontil and into the pontil. This Vase was specifically made for the famous Ovington Retail Store in New York City at the turn of the century. This Pattern in this form is hard to find. This Vase is similar to those made by one of their Contemporary's of the day, Daum and Galle'. If this vase was made by Daum or Galle' it would be worth $3000-$5000. These were made to be able to be owned by the middle class. This Vase was made Circa 1900-1915. This is a brief History of Legras. In 1864 Auguste Legras took over the St. Denis glassworks and founded Legras. He was already an experienced glassmaker, and began producing a massive amount of glass in many commercial types and styles. The company was soon very successful. It was profitable enough for the family to take over the established Pantin glassworks in 1897. Somewhere around 1900, possibly at the great Paris Exhibition, Legras discovered Emile Galle, and Legras decided to seriously concentrate on producing art nouveau style glass, both Cameos like Galle and a wide range of other techniques. In 1909 Auguste retired and the company was taken over by his son Charles, who quickly started to focus on the early scent bottles being designed by Rene Lalique for Coty, getting a contract to produce some early ones before Rene Lalique was fully geared up to produce them. Like most French Glass makers, the Legras works closed between 1914 and 1919. After 1919 they quickly identified the need to move to Art Deco style production. Legras produced quite a range of different and original art glass. However a significant part of their production followed the styles of Galle, Daum, Moser, Rene Lalique, Schneider, etc. Sometime in the late 1920s, Legras' production of art glass effectively ceased.   « Less
