Dancing girl, Bakelite clock, and lamp? What's not to like?

Here's a great find: a 1920's Art Deco clock that includes a lighted dancing girl with reflective mirrors behind her. She is hand-painted and has a blue skirt and blonde hair. The red pillars illuminate from behind as well. The clock face, marked "Lincoln", does not have a crystal. More details on the clock can be seen here.

French 1930s "Winged Lady" Deco Lamp

Up for auction is a "Winged Lady" Art Deco lamp marked "France" with no further signature. The base illuminates and is primarily marble. The body is a cast material that the seller has not definitively identified. It is being sold from Mannheim Germany and already has a healthy bid of $510 four days before the May 28th close date of the auction. If anyone is familiar with the maker, let us all know. More pictures and details here.

Nude Figure Art Deco Lamp

The above pictured lamp is up for sale until bidding ends on May 9th. I find the overall aesthetic of the lamp to be very pleasing and the fixture section of the lamp is made of brass. There has been a minor amount of in-painting but overall the original paint seems intact. It appears to be an original shade or period shade, at least. Bidding stands at $27 but I plan to participate if it stays there... More detail and pictures can be seen here.
