HANDEL Reverse Painted Lamp Rookwood ARTS CRAFTS

FINE 1924 HANDEL LAMP ON SIGNED ROOKWOOD BASE. VERY REPRESENTATIVE OF THE ARTS & CRAFTS MOVEMENT. THE 18" CHIPPED ICE MOSSERINE SHADE, SIGNED "HANDEL #21," WITH AN APERTURE RING STAMPED "HANDEL LAMP CO. PAT'D. NO. 979664" IS SUPPORTED BY IT'S ORIGINAL ROOKWOOD MATTE GREEN, DRIP GLAZE BASE. THE BOTTOM OF THE ROOKWOOD BASE IS SIGNED WITH THE ROOKWOOD FLAME LOGO AND "XXIV/614D," SIGNIFYING THE PRODUCTION OF THE BASE IS 1924, AND GLAZE TYPE "D" WHICH I AM UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE TYPE OF GLAZE TYPE AS I HAVE LOST MY RESOURCE WEBSITE. THE "XXIV" SIGNIFIES THE LAMP WAS MADE IN 1924. I HAVE NOT REMOVED THE FOOT OF THE BASE TO TAKE AN IMAGE OF THIS MARKING. IT WAS REMOVED WHEN THE LAMP WAS REWIRED, AND GUARANTEED TO BE MARKED AS SUCH. THE BASE IS FITTED WITH ITS ORIGINAL HARDWARE, AND HAS THREE ORIGINAL MARKED "HUBBELL" SOCKETS WITH ACORN PULL CHAINS, ALL WORKING FINE. THE GLAZE ON THE BASE IS A FANTASTIC CUCUMBER OR FROG SKIN GLAZE WITH SUBTLE HINTS OF DRIP. THE LAMP STANDS ABOUT 24" TALL, TO THE TOP OF ITS ORIGINAL FLOWER FORM FINIAL. THE MOSSERINE SHADE IF BOTH REVERSE AND OBVERSE PAINTED IN A GRUEBY BROWN ARTS & CRAFTS COLOR OVER A FANTASTIC CHIPPED ICE BLANK. THIS LAMP WOULD BE A FINE ASSET TO ANY DISCRIMINATING COLLECTOR OF HANDEL LAMPS, OR THOSE WISHING TO ADD A NICE PIECE OF VINTAGE ARTS & CRAFTS LIGHTING TO THEIR A&C OR MISSION DECORE CONSISTING OF STICKLEY, ROYCROFT, VAN ERP, LIFETIME, ETC. GUARANTEED TO BE A FOCAL POINT IN YOUR HOME OR OFFICE! EXCELLENT OVER ALL CONDITION. NO CRACKS, OR CHIPS ON EITHER SHADE OR BASE. LAST FEW IMAGES ARE OTHER ART GLASS OR LAMP RELATED ITEMS I CURRENTLY HAVE LISTED. SHIPPING INFORMATION: SHADE WILL BE METICULOUSLY DOUBLE BOXED AND SHIPPED SEPARATE OF THE BASE. I HAVE A VERY GOOD TRACK RECORD FOR THE OVER 300 LAMPS I HAVE SHIPPED. GREAT CARE WILL BE TAKEN IN THE PACKAGING. PLEASE DO NOT MAKE PAYMENT UNTIL A REVISED INVOICE IS EMAILED TO YOU REFLECTING INSURANCE COVERAGE. THANK YOU!!

PURCHASE AGREEMENT TERMS: ALL ITEMS SOLD "AS IS" and "AS SHOWN IN IMAGES" SO PLEASE BID ACCORDINGLY AND BASED ON THE IMAGES PROVIDED! USE THE DESCRIPTION ONLY AS A GUIDE TO CONDITION, AND CONDITION ALONE.

TERMS & CONDITIONS: !!IMPORTANT!! I offer antique/collectible, estate finds, as shown in the images in my listings. If I make no reference to authenticity, then it is something I have little to no knowledge about, and is being sold "as is," WITHOUT EXCEPTION. This means no returns, under any condition other than my failure to disclose a condition issue. So please, make sure you know what you are bidding on, and ONLY rely on my description for sizes, and conditions, not for identification, dating, and certainly not for value as any reference of such is simply an opinion, (you will rarely find me placing a value on an item, but sometimes I might make reference to a past auction record, but only for general purposes). Those assessments are all the responsibility of the Bidder. I am not an expert, or certified appraiser. My return policy encompasses a 3 day return for CONDITION issues ONLY. If I call something MINT, and it has a crack or chip that I failed to mention, and is not shown in any of the enlargeable images, it may be returned. Factory or in the making flaws are not damage, and items cannot be returned for such. I do not buy from Antique Malls, Dealers, Flea Markets, or the like. All items come from estates, and almost always have never been offered to the public before. Colors of items, especially those having iridescence's or colored glass, may be interpreted differently by your computer, especially if you have an older model, or a more basic graphic accelerator card. I compare color and detail of the actual items I photograph with my digital images before listings are launched. I will NOT accept a return based on a negligible difference in color, as I have no way of knowing how your computer/monitor will present my digital images for your viewing. My observations may differ from yours, so it is incumbent on the bidder to study/research the photos provided, request additional photos where necessary, and ask questions pertaining to condition, PRIOR to placing a bid. I do not specialize in any given area, and am not an appraiser. I cannot provide authoritative valuations, ages, or identifications for many of the items I offer, and where I do provide this information, it is gleaned from brief research which should not be relied on as your definitive source when considering placing your bid, as it is only as accurate as the source from which it was obtained. Often you will see terminology such as: Attr. (attributed to), in the manner of, like, or after. For instance, Tiffany (attr.) means that the item is attributed to being made by Tiffany but not guaranteed to be by the company's hand. All measurements are within +/- 1/2." I only offer refunds on items grossly misrepresented. Shipping each way is non-refundable unless stated in my description. PLEASE REFER TO RETURN POLICY.
