French Art Nouveau Lamp by Emile Galle Cameo Cut Glass in Red Sunset Colors

Product Description

A Magnificent and Rare Antique French Galle Signed Cut-Cameo Lamp with Original Signed Galle Cut-Cameo Shade, in Red and Yellow Sunset Colors. This floral motif Galle lamp is made in the art nouveau style with two-toned deep red flowers on a base and shade. The sharp edges of the floral design, which is all hand-carved, complement the smooth round mushroom-shaped shade and base. The rounded shape and delicate hand-carved glass of multiple colors and hues is a signature of Galle lamps. They typically form a cap-like shade over the thin tourine base. Another important feature of the lamp is the rounded finish on the rim, the glass is smooth at the rim—a sign that the lamp is authentic. This lamp exudes the soft romanticism of Art Nouveau. Gallé was a prominent glassblower and one of the most influential figures in the French Art Nouveau movement. Specializing in floral glassware, this lamp is a quintessential example of Gallé’s command of the craft and exquisite sense of aesthetics. Signed by Emile Galle
