Handel (American, 1885 - 1936), circa 1915.
This exceptional table lamp exemplifies the artistry and craftsmanship of the Handel Company, featuring a reverse-painted glass shade on a chipped ice design, signed "7036 A.G." on the inner rim, denoting the celebrated "Birds of Paradise" design. The shade is exquisitely hand-painted with vibrant depictions of exotic birds amidst lush foliage and florals, rendered in vivid hues that showcase the technical mastery and aesthetic brilliance synonymous with Handel's work.
The lamp's base, designed in a classic urn form, is finished in patinated bronze and adorned with finely executed decorative accents. It is signed "Handel" in script on the underside, confirming its authenticity and esteemed provenance.
This lamp is a quintessential example of early 20th-century American decorative lighting, merging functionality with exceptional artistic design. The "Birds of Paradise" motif remains one of Handel's most sought-after designs, reflecting the company’s enduring legacy in the Art Nouveau and Arts and Crafts movements.
