An Original Art Deco, Blue Satin Glass,'The Three Graces' Torchiere Lamp, with it's Original Frosted-Glass Flame Shade, created circa 1930 in Germany. This period Art Deco lamp, is sculpted in moulded & pressed satin glass in Germany, by Walther & Sohne, using the same techniques as Lalique and Sabino in France at the same time. Their glass studios embraced the new design aesthetics of both Art Nouveau and Art Deco, creating many stylish modern designs of the moment, and now collected around the world for their style and elegance combined with exceptional glass making techniques. This paticular lamp depicts three nude maidens, all mirroring each other in pose, holding their torch-light high above beckoning mortals to their beauty.

The base has a subtle sky-blue color to the satin-glass, that captures the light beautifully on both the smooth form of the nudes and the contrasting geometric base they stand upon. This base has just a couple of tiny flea bites to the geometric plynth and one small ding to the metal shade attachment which is hidden by the shade gallery. All hardly noticeable as a whole & in remarkable condition for the lamps age with the flame glass shade in perfect condition and has a lovely warm glow when alight.

The fluted urn shaped shade gallery is cast in a gilt metal and has two supporting screws for attaching the glass shade with an on/off switch on the inside. The lamp itself takes a standard fitting bayonet-bulb, which works fine, and has been re-wired at an earlier time. But as with all old electrical items, it should be tested and checked by a qualified electrician before prolonged use. This period Art Deco glass lamp is an impressive 380mm's tall, by 140mm's in diameter, and is quite weighty for it's size.
