Vintage Slate and Teakwood Studio Craft Floor Lamp by Harspwell House
$1,600.00Vintage floor lamp (shade is not included) composed of a rectangular teak column supported by a footed rectangular base constructed using Harpswell House’s patented process of laminating inlaid wood (teak in this case) with ‘300 million year old’ black slate (Maine, USA).
Though unlabeled, the base is undoubtedly Harpswell House who, in addition to small household items, sold table lamps in inlaid wood and slate. This floor version is believed to be a custom order circa 1964-65. No other floor lamp examples have been documented.
Handsome, studio craft piece in the New Hope Style of woodworkers including Phillip Lloyd Powell and Emil Milan, who crafted minimalistic designs from indigenous woods to showcase the materials. The modest form of the lamp pairs nicely with the vibrant grain of the wood and the sleek color and material contrast of the slate.
Very good, conservatively refinished condition; spots/scuffs to the wood and slate remain, and one small chip is present to the wood directly above the base on one side.
Shade is for demonstration only and is not included, though the lamp with the shade measures H: 63″ x Diameter: 14″ (for perspective only)
Lamp height (teak stem and slate base alone): 48.63″
Lamp height (socket): 50.75″
Lamp height (finial): 61″
Base: L: 7″ x D: 7″

Vintage Italian Trompe L’oeil Leather Book Library Folding Screen by Sarreid
$2,400.00Vintage Trompe-l’œil decorative three-panel folding screen/room divider depicting a faux library with antique leather bound book spines by Sarreid (ca. 1960s, Italy).
Each panel is made from stained beechwood with tooled leather books in various colors, designs, and sizes against black masonite backings, all supported by four highly stylized brass finials/feet. The two-way hinges connecting each panel allow each to be positioned inward or outward.
There are three vacant spaces across all three panels — since no exact example has been identified, it’s unclear if three books are missing or if those spaces were designed to be empty.
Regardless, the potentially missing spines do not detract from the beauty or integrity of the piece. The set looks complete.
Very good, conservatively refinished condition – natural patina/soiling to the leather spines, tarnish to one of the unpolished brass feet, and light scuffs/dings to the refinished beechwood along with one veneer fill under a hinge, as shown.
Retains the Sarreid label to the reverse.
Each panel is H: 71.5″ x L: 16″ x D: 1″
Completely folded – H: 71.5″ x L: 16.38″ x D: 3″
