I've long admired Peggy's collection of Welz life lights, & wished that I could find one...they seem to be quite rare in Australia, as I had never seen one for sale...until today!
At the monthly antiques fair, I picked this up within 5 minutes of walking in the door. Usually I go around all the stalls & "bookmark" interesting items to return to, but sometimes, things can happen on impulse.
This is a shell shaped life light with a very attractive triple cased rainbow spatter decor. It has clear applied thorny leaf like decoration & matching feet. Great condition too!
Bohemian origin, made by Welz.
Congratulations on your beautiful Welz!!

Lucky you,Marin!.So you can open a new chapter in your collection.
Well hey Marin you got off to a good start with this one. A not so common shape and a pretty spatter too!
I missed the fair, and you, again!
This is an awesome find.
Many thanks, Scott!
Thanks also, Ivonne! I'm thrilled with it & hope there will be more to come!
Much appreciated, Peggy!
I checked through your posts & couldn't see one in this exact combination, so I feel even luckier to have found it!
Many thanks, Karen! Hope we can catch up at another time...
indeed a beauty, I had never saw one in vivo
Thanks so much, kivatinitz!
