A lamp created by Avraham Bar Adon. [Jerusalem, ca. 1920].
Cast brass, cut and sawn; carved wood; wiring.
Geometric patterns are carved on the lampshade, with the inscription "Eretz Israel" and "Mazkeret Yerushalem" (Hebrew) and the artist's signature: "A. Bar Adon".
The lampshade is set on a table-stand made of olive wood with a large camel in the center, sitting, with two compartments for stationery on both sides of the hump.
Avraham Bar Adon (1885-1949), born in Jerusalem, studied in "Bezalel", first year, worked in the carpet department of the school and in 1909 when the copper and Damascene craft department was opened he was appointed as its head. In 1920 he founded the workshop "Machshevet" by "Bezalel" and it is possible that this lamp was made during that period.
Height: 41 cm, length: 45 cm, width: 14 cm. Good condition. Breaks to inscription and to sawn ornamentation on the lampshade. Some damages to wood.
