Apsit Brothers of California is famous for theme-based unique table lamps.The brothers are both gone now. And the company isn't producing new works. But they left behind quite a legacy. One of them is this very RARE table lamp produced in 1987. It's made of chalk and asphalt - chalkware. Boasting very fine details and etching. The coiled rope looks like rough-hewn strands entertwined. Facial features on the sailor are clear and fine, including his mustache. Even the wooden liquor barrel is detailed, lines looking like real engrained wood. In front of the sailor/fisherman sits a very large anchor. And oh yes, there's a friendly seal visiting. This is art. Unique and beautiful, it stands 29 1/2 inches tall. It's signed Apsit Bros. of Calif. c. 1987 on the barrel. Multi-colors, predominantly brown, white, and some red. Gorgeous and hand-painted sculpture. Light bulb not included. Lamp shade is original but too delicate to send. So it will not be included. As is customary with Apsit, someone finishes the piece, making it even more unique. See photo: Signed Michael Carman, copyright 1993.
