Bronze Gothic Art Nouveau Lamp
Style of Edgar Brandt (1910-1920)
We are offering a defining gothic, macabre, Art Nouveau period decorative masterwork. A large original early-1900s bronze snake form lamp with marble base and 2 original marked Quezal art glass shades. An exemplatory example that is dark and gothic in composition and clearly the work of a master metalworker. It is similar in style to free standing snake themed floor lamps By Edgar Brandt and could be a piece of Brandt's early work. Has silk wrapped cloth cord and original on/off switch on the back. A unique and timeless antique original example that is in a fine state of preservation.

12-Panel Austrian Art Nouveau Fan Painting
Faber Studio Austria (1910-1920)
This art nouveau creation — a truly unique, early-1900's, 12-panel fan painting — was produced in Austria by Faber Studio. Really a curiosity, as seen, each panel is its own ornately detailed scene, hand-painted on wood. Many of the panels are artist signed. Depicted are a gondola ride, a flapper girl at her boudoir, a young lad smoking, 2 kittens at play, a pair of monks, a seascape, a woman who appears lovelorn, a Spanish senorita, and a few landscapes.

Arts & Crafts Relief Bronze Wash Trinket Box
Kate Trop (1920's )
A whimsical and delightful, deep relief, signed arts & crafts aesthetic trinket box. A Far Eastern-attired, oriental man with a flute, tames a dancing frog. This vintage 1920's treasure is bronze clad over ceramic, is handsomely designed, and epitomizes turn-of-the-century style. To these eyes it is a masterwork. The piece is artist signed and appears to read KATE TROP.

Art Deco Zig Zag Motif Music Box & Desk Set
Unknown (1920's )
A most unusual, wind-up, musical desk set. The top panel that houses the desk organizer components is spring loaded and mechanical, so when the top is opened, the desk components come up. The music box plays a lilting meloncholy tune. Great original paint and screaming design that defines the jazz age, art deco, streamlined industrial, zig-zag aesthetic. In good, albeit used, overall condition. Desk set is missing a knob and there is some pitting to chromium and copper detailing on the top of this oddity.

Roseville Pottery table lamp
Roseville Pottery Co. (1930's)
A beautiful Roseville Pottery base lamp. Not sure if this was converted into a lamp or designed as one. Great form and styling on this, with $100.00 new shade and wiring.

Weller Umbrella Stand
Weller (1920's)
This is a large and beautiful example of Arts & Crafts period pottery by Weller. A highly detailed Art Nouveau-stylized, deep green substantial piece of American art pottery. Perfect condition with the Weller stamp on base.
