1900-19 ARTS & CRAFTS Hammered Copper & Mica Floor Lamp

Description

This is the last lamp I have left from the collection I purchased several years ago from the Pocono bungalow retreat. It is a rare, massive, impressive floor lamp....the bulbous base is entirely hand hammered copper with large riveted straps going up the side. The shade is riveted panels with a cast design of leaf sprigs covering each mica lined panel.  Original mica is in superb condition, original hardware has been rewired with period cloth cord. A work of art, a good investment, and great light to read by because you can easily put two 60 watt bulbs in this big shade. 59" tall; shade is 21" wide.  Thank you for looking.

Please understand that I am paying for the packaging, insurance and shipping of this lamp.  If you are pleased with this transaction, please be generous with your feedback stars since five star ratings can enable me to show up in the search engines. eBay has now gone the way of domestic automotive companies and car dealer ratings. You have to obtain Five Stars or you are considered a poor seller. I tell everyone up front what my payment and shipping policies are, please just do not bid if they are not agreeable to you. I cannot take anymore arbitrary low DSRs because buyers do not understand how they are harming sellers with a rating below 5.

Another big thank you to all of my wonderful repeat buyers. A note about payment: please pay me within seven business days unless you have arranged for a layaway prior to bidding.  I now accept visa/MC credit cards through my merchant account; you will receive this option with the auctiva checkout. Personal checks which must clear my bank, Money orders, and bank cashiers checks are also acceptable forms of payment. I have to require that (0)feedback, low feedback or high negative feedback bidders contact me before bidding. Thank you for understanding.  If you pay by check and we have not done business in the past I must wait for it to clear. Please do not bid if this is unacceptable for you.

Lamps of this nature require expert packaging. All of my lamps are packaged professionally using the best materials and shades are double boxed and shipped separately from the bases. This also takes a little time.  Thank you for your cooperation. Check my feedback for comments on the packaging, as this is probably the most important aspect of buying a lamp on the internet once you know what you are buying.
