Rare 1910s Art Deco Egyptian Motif Lady Lamp Kathodian Bronze Works
Extremely Rare ArtBronz Egyptian Revival or Art Deco Lady Lamp in an Egyptian Motif made by Kathodian Bronze Works of NYC. The deco lamp features a tall Egyptian Queen standing or floating above a small pink alabaster lamp shade. The base of the lamp is a double inkwell & pen stand with a pair of prominent Pharaoh Kings busts on each corner. They manufactured figural sculptures, lamps & lighting, bookends and decorative pieces, using the newly developed process of bronze electroforming. The company was in operation from 1900 through 1916, located on 501 Fifth Ave in New York City, thus making this a particularly RARE find. The Exquisite 110 yr-old Art Deco Lamp has a great patina and has been rewired, using 8 feet of period reproduction cloth cord. It measures 10 across by 8 deep by 14 tall and weighs 8-1/2 lbs. The inkwell pockets measure 1-1/2 square the seam along the backside of the left inkwell pocket has separated exposing some of the plaster form but it has no effect on structural integrity and only adds to the character of this one-of-a-kind work of art. Also, the brass caps on each side of the lady, that hold her in place, are slightly different the one on the left is original. To replace the lamp bulb, both caps must be removed and the lady lifted off the base in order to lift the alabaster shade to expose the bulb. The lamp has been in storage for a couple of decades and is a little dusty, so in need of a good cleaning.
