I found this B&H base at a flea market for $20 and I found the shade on the internet for $50. I put them together and this was the result. I know the lamp "purists" would say that this is a "marriage", but both base and shade are period to each other and B&H used a wide variety of shades from different makers, so I am still pleased with it.
The shade has a gold griffin on two sides and a design on the other two. It is green cased glass. I have seen similar that was attributed to Baccarat. If anyone knows who made the shade, please let me know.

Season's Greetings to you and Yours, JohannB!
Really beautiful!! All your lamps!!
Two great finds, and they fit like a glove. You are right, they bought or ordered shades from different companies.
