Item specifics
Type: Table LampOriginal/Repro: Original
Style: VintagePrimary Material: BRASS/CRYSTAL/MARBLE

I have moved many times in my married life and have bought and saved lighting fixtures that I used in one or another of our homes or offices. I have said before in my listings that I love to see Antiques and Vintage items but have not decorated with them.  BUT, I do use and adore Antique and Vintage lighting! 

I am now downsizing and they all must be passed forward and loved by someone else.  They have not been used for a long time or for very long when I did use them.

I have hemmed and hawed about listing these lamps, but the time has come and one or two lucky Buyers will be VERY happy to have them.  (I have two available, but the opening-bid price listed is for ONLY one!!!   THE LEFT TILTED ONE!!!!!  But I have pictures included of BOTH!!!)

They are magnificent in a bedroom and stunning in a dining room, bathroom, foyer or hallway. Do not use them with a larger than 40 Watt, Chandelier Bulb.   The cords seem to be from a later period than the 30's or 40's-may not be original (they only have two prongs; but they have a flip switch on the cord that allows you to have two level lighting!!!).

This lamp has a chipped petal on the "rose" flower; the brass has its own patina (never polished), and
there is rough material at the base of the leaf that looks like it is the substance that anchors the leaf to the brass.  I have washed them with a very mild soap and water, and that is all I ever do to a Vintage or Antique item that I sell.

These lamps come from "The Classic Lighting Emporium, Inc." in Olde City Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. They are a quality, reputable Vintage and Antique Lighting Store (they also sell other antique and vintage items-many, many, many of my dollars have been spent there and I have ALWAYS been MORE than pleased!!!)  They were selling for $450.00 for the pair about 10 years ago.

This is very important - I was told that the owner of the store believed them to be made especially for one person in the 1930's or 1940's.

Now to, FINALLY, tell you about the LAMPS!!!!

The base is shades of black, gray and creamy white Marble.  On top of the Marble Base is a crystal Vase-shaped  with a Brass stem-like holder of a brass outshoot holding a crystal long leaf.  At the top of the "stem" is a sculpted rose-like frosted glass flower. Inside the flower is the light bulb. They are about 17 inches tall. The base is 4 inches square.

They certainly can be used separately, but the are made to slightly bend toward one another as a pair.

I have always thought them to be exquisitely lovely!!!!!!

***SHIPPING FEES include "Delivery Confirmation" and "Insurance" to cover your winning bid required by E-Bay Policy.

****Will ship outside U.S.A; please contact me for shipping fees before bidding. All shipments outside the U.S.A. are required to have an additional fee of $1.10 for a "CERTIFICATE OF MAILING" to be issued by the Post Office for "First Class Mail International" only.  I feel that it may give a bit more security to an uninsured shipping method.
