Attributed To: In our opinion, a work of the period of the artist which may be, in whole or in part, the work of the artist. Lots catalogued as "Attributed to" are sold as such and carry no guarantee of authorship. Bidders are encouraged to examine the lot in person or request additional images and to form their own opinion prior to bidding.
About: Unique Art Glass & Metal Company was an American maker of leaded shades working from the late 1890s into the early twentieth century, founded on fixture designs George W. Bayley began patenting in 1889. Its shades were built by the copper-foil method rather than lead came — the same technique Tiffany Studios used — with naturalistic floral patterns including wisteria, poppy, peony and dogwood. The company never signed its lamps and no factory catalogue has surfaced, which is why examples are attributed on construction, glass selection and base form rather than on a mark.
Available payment options
All out-of-state buyers: we will assume your items require shipping and will coordinate it for you unless a lot is specifically marked for local pickup only or other arrangements are made with us in advance. For smaller eligible items, including jewelry, coins, sterling silver, and select small objects, we handle shipping in-house. These shipments are fully insured, require a signature, and include a $10 handling fee added to the final shipping cost. For all other items, we coordinate shipping through a local UPS Store or another appropriate third-party shipper. Once your auction invoice has been paid, the next invoice you receive will be a separate shipping invoice directly from the shipping provider. That invoice must be paid before your items are shipped. If you prefer to use your own shipper or arrange a third-party pickup, you must let us know within 2 days of the auction closing. We will coordinate release of the items once arrangements are confirmed. To help prevent fraud, shipments will only be sent to the billing address tied to the payment method unless payment is made by wire transfer and approved in advance. All items are shipped with full declared value and full insurance. Buyers are responsible for all packing, shipping, insurance, duties, taxes, and any import or export fees. International shipping is handled on a case-by-case basis and must be approved by us before bidding. Questions can be sent to bid@sebastiancharles.com
