c. 1980s; Sarsaparilla Deco Designs - New York, NY
Cast-metal figural table lamp depicting a stylized nude female form with outstretched arms supporting two frosted glass "wing" panels. Gloss-black enamel finish with stepped Art Deco base and embossed Sarsaparilla - N.Y.C. - ©1934 mark along the edge. This sculptural design, known as the Butterfly Nymph, was originally created in 1927 by Frankart designer Arthur von Frankenberg and reissued decades later by Sarsaparilla Deco Designs using the original molds.
The Sarsaparilla company, active in New York from the mid-1970s through the 1990s, became well known for producing licensed Art Deco reproductions from original Frankart and Nuart molds, preserving the bold geometric forms and chrome elegance that defined early modern American design.
