An exceptional and highly collectible American Art Deco figural table lamp, manufactured by Roberts and stamped with the historical patent date of November 23, 1926. This dramatic vanity-style accent lamp features a highly ornate silver-washed spelter frame with intricate filigree panels depicting winged mythical griffins or stylized gargoyles flanking a central sunburst medallion.
The filigree housing holds two removable, thick curved panels of brilliant sky-blue and white marbled slag glass that diffuse light beautifully. The upper housing is supported by three beautifully cast figural putti or cherub figures resting along the edge of a monumental mirrored plateau base, creating a wonderful infinity reflection when illuminated.
The underside reveals the authentic original wood insulation plate and the crisp, stamped manufacturer hallmark reading: PAT. 11-23-26 ROBERTS.

This antique lamp is being sold strictly as-found for restoration or rewiring. The original vintage wiring is severely degraded, fragile, and partially taped; it has not been tested and must be professionally rewired by an electrician before use. Structurally, the cast metal frame is solid with an exquisite aged patina, showing honest wear to the silver wash which exposes the darker metal tones underneath. The original blue slag glass inserts are in excellent condition and slide smoothly out of the frame. The inset base mirror is intact but sits loosely within its channel, shifting slightly if the base is tilted. An incredibly rewarding restoration project for a specialist collector or a spectacular statement accent piece for a Hollywood Regency or Art Deco interior.
