Shell Memory Folk Art Mosaic Sailor's Valentine Lamp Base and Jar Desk Set Freshwater American 1920s
Shell Memory Folk Art Mosaic Sailor's Valentine Lamp Base and Jar Desk Set Freshwater American 1920s
On offer a marvelous pair of shell art / memory folk art objects, one a jar for holding pens and other desk items and the other the base for a lamp. These are carefully collected shells, likely freshwater, meticulously attached to found bottles, likely in the 1920s or 1930s. Beautifully composed mosaic of otherwise prosaic shells.
SIZE: Lamp base 8" T x 5.5" D, jar 5.25" T x 3" D
CONDITION: Very good, presents beautifully, as shown. Some fractured shells, but very few. Remarkably intact.

SHIPPING: On items over a certain amount, this shop is programmed for free shipping. This happens very rarely, but if the real cost of postage to you is wildly above the estimate I may have to charge a modest amount for delivery, which will only reflect the real cost with no markup. Thankfully, this is very seldom the case, and mostly occurs with overseas or West Coast sales. If you'd like me to check in advance, please let me know. Again, this is a rare situation.
