Throughout the week, we are going to share some of my favorites here at the gallery. Today is this remarkable, superb quality Murano clear glass lantern by Seguso,
April showers brings May, actually, June––flowers; flowers bursting of vibrant beautiful color, just like this large pair of crackle-glaze ceramic lamps in a richly-colored turquoise by Frederick Cooper here at epoca. These lamps are a perfect example of the extraordinary quality associated with the Frederick Cooper Lamp Company established in Chicago in 1923. Frederick was a Chicago artist and was fascinated with the new invention of lamps and tried to incorporate the elements and flavors of American architecture of that time which has been carried on through the generations. Visit our gallery at 1700 16th street @ Kansas to see these and other fabulous lamps at epoca and the new home of Garden Court Antiques. See you soon!

View Photos: Change is good but thank goodness the lamb chops remained! This year’s San Francisco Fall Art and Antiques Show was all about change and for the better. The improved floor plan created secret passageways and sneak peaks for the exhibition goer. Attendees meandered through brightly-colored Farrow and Ball painted booths. The well-attended show had a fresh new look with vibrant contemporary art galleries mixed among the traditional and 20th century furniture dealers. Bravo SFFAAS 2016!
