Bronze Gothic Art Nouveau Table Lamp In The Manner of Edgar Brandt	A Follies Bergere Josephine Baker Unknown

A large and very rare hand painted composition figural advertising display of Josephine Baker in her legendary and scandalous banana skirt. The international sensation made its debut in the 1927 Follies Bergere show titled "Un Vent de Folie" and became Baker's signature costume. Likely French in manufacture, this is an antique and original burlesque era surviving advertising document, we have never seen another example and are certain few were manufactured and even fewer have survived.

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.

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.

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 in 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.

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 rise up. The music box plays a lilting melancholy 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.

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.
