These four fairy lamps are pyramid-size (2.25" diameter) in a theaded Silveria-like glass. As you can see two have a embossed swirl and two do not. All are resting in a clear Clarke lamp cup. c. 1895-1900

JIM, THESE ARE AWESOME! ONLY THE THIRD FROM LEFT TO RIGHT WOULD TECHNICALLY QUALIFY AS SILVERIA, BUT THERE IS NO DOUBT AS TO THE PROVENANCE. ALSO, CHECK OUT THE WEST VIRGINIA MUSEUM HOSCH CATALOG.

Yes, Victorian-era fairy lamps are not very well known. they are difficult at best to find. I am pleased to have the opportunity to share my collection with others.
