| Country/Region of Manufacture: United States |
Just out of a local smoke free house is this very nice Handel "Mosserine"Arts and Crafts table lamp. It has a molded chipped ice shade with an Arts and Crafts style border and a cased white interior. The shade is marked U S Patent No 97966 No 775818 Handel Brown and is also numbered 5635 1/2. The shade ring is also marked Handel Lamps Patd No 979664. The metal base has a matching chipped ice pattern that compliments the chipped ice shade. The base has its original Hubbell acorn p...ull sockets and has the woven Handel tag on the bottom. The felt was changed some time ago but they saved the original worn felt and transferred the original Handel tag. The lamp stands about 21 3/4 inches tall and about 14 1/4 inches wide. The shade alone measures about 14 1/4 inches at its widest and about 7 inches high. The shade is in very good condition with no chips, cracks, or repairs. There is only some "scaling" to the white cased interior that was done in the making and is not visible on the outside and does not compromise the shade. The "scaling" is a very thin layer of glass on its surface done in the mold making process. The scaling looks just like there are pieces of clear scotch tape on the glass but they are actually a very very thin layer of glass. This area is shown in the listing in picture 9. It is located on the inside of the shade near the top ring opening. It does not show from the outside nor does it affect or compromise the shade. The bronze finished base had been rewired with a reproduction nylon covered wire. The electrics work well. The lamp will ship in 2 boxes and the shade will be double boxed. See photos as they are part of the description.
