For your consideration, an extremely rare Steuben art glass lamp base in Oriental Poppy (Steuben shape 8417), also usable as a large shade, made by special order for the Crest Lamp Company; examples of which are found in original Steuben line drawings available from the Carder-Steuben Club or the Corning Museum of Glass. This base, along with many of our other listings, is being offered at no reserve. Grounded in a stunning pink with subtle shimmer, known as Oriental Poppy, the entirety of this piece wears a decoration of optic ribs in a more ethereal hue. Complimenting this decoration is the interior, bathed in a satin platinum wash to create delicate jewel tones.
On the opposite side of the mouths exaggerated flare is additional decoration, a stunning display of artistically applied threading in a verdant spring green. The green of the threading, combined with the bloom shape of the glass and gentle pink coloration, lends itself to a beautiful floral leitmotif. Very good to excellent overall with small smooth divergences to bottom rim (pictured, not visible when in use) and minute misses to threading. Measures approximately 9 in height with a top diameter of approximately 9 and bottom opening diameter of approximately 1 ½ as is detailed in the Steuben line drawings.Items paid by Personal Check are held until check clears.
