Description
Authentic Signed Quetzal Art Glass Lamp Shade, Rare Iridescent gold, flawless.This mint condition, glowing gold Quetzal lampshade is a rare example of the company’s top line art nouveau decorative art glass work.
Its “pulled feather” design, overlaid on a special gold iridescent glass is highly valued. (Love the iridescent blue bottom trim, a subtle luxury touch).
With light from an art nouveau base, its glow is stunning. (Notice the subtle color and luminescence changes in the last three backlit photos).
Designs like this one were sometimes created by rolling, or marvering, hot glass to create a unique luster gold surface.
About Quetzal
Wikipedia tells us that Quetzal was founded in 1901 at Brooklyn, New York by two master glass designers from Tiffany. Its pieces drew prices equal to Tiffany, and higher than those of elite French imports, like those of Gallé.
