This Tiffany Studios New York "Abalone Linenfold" desk lamp, which consists of an amber molded glass "Linenfold" shade and abalone inlaid in a gilt bronze base, is a luxurious example of both texture and pattern from Louis Comfort Tiffany. While the glass shade offers a field of sumptuous folds reminiscent of rich folded fabric, the base's gilting and abalone inlay treat the viewer to a mesmerizing, shimmering shine.
