Here is a figural newel post lamp of a noble woman falconer. It is made of spelter and is signed A. Gaudez. The sheer detail from the woman's dress to the falconer's gauntlet is amazing.
I placed a Loetz PG 1/473 shade in creta green on it as it resembles a tree canopy to me. The shade is very large, with a 4" fitter rim and very iridescent. All told, the lamp is about 28" tall.
This appears to be a J. B. Hirsch Co. lamp rendered from an antique Gaudez mold. Lamp ca. 1930's.
What a delight, it must make you smile each time it's lit.
Way Cool !!!!!
