The Frank Rider Collection - Spring Classic Part 1 - Day 2
Lot 1257:
Description
These striking stained glass panels offer a fascinating glimpse into early 20th-century interior aesthetics, serving as ornate light-diffusing inserts likely salvaged from an upright player piano or a high-end Nickelodeon arcade machine. The set features stylized landscape scenes—complete with rolling hills and sunburst motifs—framed in robust metal came with iconic pyramid-style corner accents. The geometric simplicity and focus on natural, earth-toned landscapes are quintessential hallmarks of the Arts & Crafts movement, designed to elevate the visual appeal of musical and entertainment consoles of the period. The collection includes one rectangular panel measuring 9.25″ H x 22.5″ W and two mirrored side panels measuring 13″ H x 12.5″ W. Regarding condition, the large rectangular panel shows notable glass loss in the lower section, while the two mirrored companion panels are in stable, complete condition. H 9.25″, W 22.5″, D 0.25″ Please see photos for condition.
