2 VINTAGE PAPERWEIGHT CRYSTAL TABLE LAMPS w/PRISMS

This auction brings you a pair of absolutely amazing crystal paperweight lamps with even more elegant hanging prisms.  The pair comes to you from an older Chicago estate.  The crystal quality and pattern reminds me of classic Waterford. 

* These are tall, measuring 36" tall to top of harp; 21" to top of first paperweight crystal.  Each holds 10 prisms which run 13" long.  You can't really appreciate the size until you see them. 

* They are set on silver metal bases that feature a highly decorative pattern on the sides and beaded edging along the top and bottom.  Base measures 14 1/2" in diameter with a 1 1/2" depth.  (I think these can be removed.  Wiring is new.)  Each metal base has sections where the silver is worn off.  Please see photos.

* The silver rings that separate the crystal sections are in very good, clean condition.

* Replace these older harps and add beautiful finials.

* Crystal on each lamp is very clean without serious cracks/chipping.  If I run my hand along the top scalloped edge, I can feel extremely tiny chips that not visible.  Approx. 4-6 on each lamp.

* These prisms truly make these lamps extraordinary.  13" long.  The long cut prism at the bottom runs 8" long and is connected with 2 round and one rectangular prism at the top.  
     
      -There are 19 prisms. 1 is missing. (Once set, you won't notice, but look on-line for a replacement.)

      -I've gone over  each prism.  6 have one extremely tiny nick

      -1  is missing the small round prism at the top.

      -3 have a deeper chip; 2 at the very bottom and 1 along the side.  

*Options you have are; Use one lamp and select the very best prisms or simply realize that once against a wall, you will not see the flaws because of the light reflected off of each.  These are wide so the missing prism is not highly noticed.

*I will box separately.  Shipping quoted reflects two boxes.  Each box weighs 18 pounds.  No shades.  I'll send via Fed Ex Ground.

Thank you!  (If your bid only reflects your need for the prisms, I'll adjust shipping cost and mail out only the the prisms.)
