(A) Such an embarrassment of riches!!! Arguably the finest lamp I've ever had, impoverished collector that I am. Dare I say it? Yes: museum-worthy, this, like, totally awesome French Art Nouveau desk or table lamp with its signed, acid cut-back, multi-colored Le Verre Francais shade. Seventeen inches tall, perfect antique condition, a once-in-a-lifetime moment! As befitting "the best," this FLEW out the door! SOLD!!!

![]() (B) This lamp is hovering around the top of my Personal Favorites List. A deep, rich patina, wonderful iron work on an unusually-shaped base, and those NUTS... not to mention the Schneider shade with its purples, blues, and mottled whites and grays (not so well represented in this photo, sorry)... It measures 13 high, about 10 wide. (e-mail Jack for a price)

![]() (D) A super high-quality snake lamp. Look at that precious little venonous head! A magnificently colored hand-blown art glass shade graces this hand-wrought jewel of a lamp, which stands 17 1/2 inches tall. (e-mail Jack for a price)

(F) Sporting a signed Daum shade, this silver-plated brass, 23-inch high Art Nouveau lamp is perhaps the prize of my Nouveau lamp collection! The graceful curve, the stylishly decorated base... ooo la-la! There's some silver loss (that over-zealous Fifi the French maid thing again!), giving it even more antiquity! (e-mail Jack for a price)

(G) The Austrian aesthetic is clearly present here... and the original shade equally expressive of its Secessionist roots... nice interplay of copper and brass... 12 1/2 inches tall. (e-mail Jack for a price)

(H) What a splendid and special pair of table lamps! With their slender shafts which effortlessly transform into their bases, and their plant-form finials, they have that organic quality associated with the Art Nouveau period; the rich gold patina would suggest that earlier time as well. At night, when they're on, the red shades seem to vibrate. "Mood" lamps of the highest order! They're about a foot tall. (e-mail Jack for a price)
