      Italian Art Glass Lamp
£625.00
This is what we believe to be a lamp by Cenedese, although when we bought it many years ago we were told it was by Seguso. The quality of the glass is superb and the detail of the fish amazing. The colours glow even when it is not lit and the fish appears alive in its red, seaweedy world. The metalwork is also excellent as one would expect on an item of this calibre. There might be a signature under the green baize of the back plate but we have not tried to investigate and maybe risk damaging it as it is so obviously a piece of the finest quality. The lamp weighs  approximately 2390 grams, is 18 cm in height, 20 in width and 10 cm in depth. The condition is excellent.

It is approximately 14 cm high and 10 cm in diameter and is in excellent condition, although a couple of tiny inclusions can be made out in the second photo. These would have been there at the time of making.
It is signed to the base which is polished at the edges leaving the centre with the pontil mark quite rough. Next to the signature is the number 86, which is presumably the date, making this an early piece.
The photos can only give an impression of its wonderful iridescence.
