Beautiful Emile Galle Signed Cameo Glass Lamp With Dragonfly
Here is a very gorgeous signed Emile Galle cameo glass lamp, using a base color of orange with a motif of dragonflies. This lamp measures roughly 18 inches tall, measured from the base to the highest point in the shade. This lamp has what looks to be a layered construction with noticeable raises in the material and textured details. A rough textured surface makes up for most of the orange glass, with a light sheen to the elevated areas. The layering of colors can be seen from the underside of the shade, with very clear outlines for the dragonflies on the surface. The shade is held on with tightening screws that tension down on the surface of the glass, and holds it in place with a set of retainers. The holding limbs are connected to the base where the bulb comes through, also held onto the body of the lamp with set screws. The screws vary a decent bit, with some being traditional flatheads, others looking to have started as flatheads with a secondary line added later at a different depth, with some of the screws in the bulb retaining plate looking to be full on Phillips heads. The bulb itself looks modern, with the electrical bits also looking to be at least somewhat modern, with a recognizable two prong connector. The shade has a signature for Galle, looking to be one of many styles for the signature, as it seems to differ in style from lamp to lamp. Overall condition is very good. A very gorgeous, highly stylized piece.
