"Boule" Lamp, Felix Aublet
Felix Aublet
"Boule" Lamp
circa 1935
nickel-plated metal
12 ¼ in. (31.1 cm) high
8 in. (20.3 cm) diameter of shade
Condition Report:
Overall in very good condition. The nickel-plated metal presents with scattered surface scratches and light scuffing throughout consistent with age and gentle use. The shade presents with a slightly more pronounced scratch measuring approximately 1 in., not visually distracting. The metal presents with areas of discoloration and losses to the nickel plating particularly concentrated to the arms, as well as occasional traces of pitting, tarnish and light surface soiling consistent with age. Sotheby's does not guarantee electrical components and suggests having all wiring inspected by a licensed electrician.
