   AFTER PARTICIPATING IN THE 34TH ANNUAL ARTS AND CRAFTS CONFERENCE, A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE I HAVE MISSED, I AM BACK IN THE SHOP WORKING AND THE INVENTORY IS BEING UPDATED.

    Here are previews of three objects I am researching with essays in progress which will hopefully provide new information about their crafters.

Do you have any copper pieces with this mark or a similar variation? If so, I'd appreciate your sharing them with me.
All responses will be private and not shared without your express permission.
(I'm happy to add that since this posting appeared a few days ago, a number of people have sent images of pieces they have with the same mark. I'm very appreciative to see more of this maker's work. Hopefully more people will send further images. I am also interested in purchasing any pieces any collectors may have which they are willing to sell. Thanks to those who have shared their examples.)

PictureD'Arcy Gaw/Dirk van Erp table lamp. 1910. 17"H x 14"D.
Perhaps the first lamp from the brief association of D'Arcy Gaw and Dirk van Erp, prototypical in a number of ways. (An article is in the works.)

**********************************************************************************
PictureTen light lotus, hammered copper and abalone shell table lamp. 40"H x 20"D.
A mystery unravelling....Research in progress.  At this point, I am attributing the lamp to Leonide Lavaron which may or may not turn out to be the case.
