1920s Riviere Spiderweb Slag Panel Lamp sells for $1,195 in November 2009.

This is an unsigned Riviere table lamp. Riviere was an apprentice in the studio of Louis Comfort Tiffany and eventually went on the open his own studio, employing former Tiffany workers. Many of the unsigned Riviere lamps and desk sets are copies of Tiffany’s designs. The unsigned Riviere pieces are occasionally mistaken for Tiffany studios objects, although dealers who specialize in Tiffany glass have come to know the difference. The lamp measures 21″ tall, and 12″ wide.
