I love art glass and lamps the most. My wife sells some of my collection on her online shop, of course she has to twist my arm, it is like selling a child. I find most of my items at yard sales, craigslist and even at antique malls and I can't believe what great things are still out there. Check out my stuff every once in a while, I will post what I find. (Read more)

  1. I would estimate value at $1500 at auction and $2200 replacement.
  2. It looks like Bradley and Hubbard or B&H to me. Nice lamp!
  3. I think these may be Pairpoint. I have seen similar that are signed, but sometimes the signature gets cleaned off. The look great!
  4. I used to have one just like this that was made by Rainaud. It is spelter or white metal. Value is roughly $500 or so. Thank you for sharing.
  5. Your lamp is made by a company called Aladdin. The glass is what they called Alacite. It was made around 1940.
  6. I agree with MacArt, Barovier & Toso for sure. Never seen these mounted in a lamp. Definite keepers. I would value at around $750 retail. Thank you for sharing!
  7. Yes, it is Handel and is shown on page 202 in Handel Lamps Painted Shades and Glassware by De Falco, Hibel and Hibel. The production number of 7593 shows that it was made in 1926. It is a great piece,...
  8. Yes, you are correct. Tiffin used a very similar base for their lamps. You may be on to something. I will keep searching too.
  9. The letter A is for Arrow, a socket manufacturer. The maker of the shade could have been one of several companies. It is such a nice design that it has been reproduced over the years, but yours appear...
  10. Hey GJ, I have the same book case! I like to keep my art glass in it. Looking at your stuff, it looks like we were separated at birth.
  11. Hey GJ, you are right, we have similar tastes. I really have a soft spot for D&K. I found a great one at a show for 7K and knew it was worth more, but couldn't swing it at the time. It sold the first ...
  12. Hi Lisa, you might find this info helpful: F.L. ……………….Frederick Lorenz & Co, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. This mark (and “F. L. & Co.”) was listed by Rhea Mansfield Knittle in Early American Glass (192...
  13. Glad he loves them. They are pretty cool!
  14. Hello amrose, if you go to http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/65536-underwriters-laboratories-portable-lamp?in=192 you can see a similar one. I think these are 1980's or newer. Also you can go to...
  15. Your lamp was made by the Majestic Lamp Company. Go to http://hepcatrestorations.com/2011/07/24/majestic-lamp-company/ to see what kind of shades to look for to complete yours. Thanks for sharinbg.
  16. I am probably wrong, but these look American in style to me. It is more of a Quezal shape with Fostoria stylings and rare Steuben threading. It is either a rare group or a newer product made to confus...
  17. Nice buy!
  18. Hi GoodJunk! Actually the shape of your shade is called a Palermo shade and is usually designated as a "Puffy". Sorry LB, many "Puffys" like San Remo, Roma, Torino and Ravenna do not have pronounced p...
  19. If you go to http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/5012667 you can see similar.
  20. I believe this was made by the John Scott Lamp Co. which would make you assessment of age correct.
  21. Thanks guyfrmatl!
  22. Lane & Co were in production during the 50's and 60's in Van Nuys, CA. I have seen a lot of them, but this is the first Zebra I have seen. Might be rare. They produce some as lamps and others as plant...
  23. Thank you BELLIN68 and chinablue!
  24. Very nice Lisa! You never see these with the original shades.
  25. Nicely done! You have a talent for redesign.
  26. How did you find this? It is great! I wish I had a copy.
  27. Hello Lisa, The shape of the shades in pics 3 and 4 is also a Steuben shape and is shown in Darrah Robert's book page 55, pic 100. Steuben did threading of this type and I think I would put my money S...
  28. Thank you Lisa. It is nice to have a safety net. I buy things if I think its a good price and when I need the money I sell. The majority of the time it is at a very good profit and a lot more fun than...
  29. Lovely shade. I had a similar one that was 10" in diameter and with blues and purples. It was on a Peter Tereszczuk lamp base and I always thought it was Loetz. Although I can't find a picture of it a...
  30. Put this with furniture like this and wow! http://www.puritanvalues.co.uk/24216.jpg
  31. Wow! At first, I didn't even give these a second look. But, the more I look at them, the more I like them. Good find. I would love to find something like these. Thank you for sharing. I would say tha...
  32. I have a similar shade. It is not cranberry, but clear and I was told it was Mt Washington. I will try to upload pics of it.
  33. Yes, you are correct. James Powell was one of the exceptions, but even he did not use the amount of uranium as American glass companies. With European vaseline it was based on the color of the glass, ...
  34. This is great! Looks like something that James Powell would make on his best day.
  35. This is likely European, maybe Belgian or German. The style is Jugendstil, which is an Art Nouveau form which started in Germany in the 1890's. The shades may or may not be original, but they are peri...
  36. Benjamin made lamp parts, but not whole lamps. Many of these "Arts and Crafts" style lamps were made by lamp companies, but quite a few were made by High School students in shop class. Some of them ar...
  37. This type of carved glass is most commonly called Cameo Glass. It was made very popular in the use of lamps by Galle, Daum Nancy and others. If you Google these names, you will find similar glass with...
  38. I have seen your lamp most often with a round glass shade with cut or pressed diamond pattern. Take a look at these sites for ideas. http://www.glasstreasurechest.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=35...
  39. If you go to http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/5637498 you can see a pair of these (one is missing the figure) that sold for $25. Thank you for sharing with us.
  40. It is indeed a Handel reproduction. It is a very good one and has fooled many. There were a few companies that made similar lamps. L&L WMC and Sechrist to name two. Albert Sechrist of Denver Colorado ...
  41. It looks to me like a reading lamp that would straddle the back of a chair and shine over the shoulder of the reader. The electrical hardware is European and I would put the date of manufacture around...
  42. Thank you betty4. There is another figure he made like this one, but with a garland of flowers, not fruit and it sold at auction for $500,000! Why couldn't I have found that one?
  43. Hello, the style of the lamp looks like it was made by Majestic Lamp. Usually they have fiberglass shades, but yours looks amazing with the spaghetti shades. Thanks for sharing with us.
  44. Hello DonH, I believe your lamp was made by either Riviere or Apollo Studios. The glass appears to be Kokomo Sunset glass and not their usual green. The finish is usually a green patina, but yours loo...
  45. Your lamp base is probably from the Chicago area and used by The Unique Lamp Co, Chicago Mosaic Lamp Co, Mosaic Shade Co. or Moran & Hastings. It dates from around 1910-1920. Take the weight off the b...
  46. The only similar one I have found so far is this one http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/10251947 It sold for $300
  47. Thank you, guyfrmatl, Greatsnowyowl, czechman, antiquefreak66, scandinavian_pieces and DeeLores!
  48. Good for you, thanks for rescuing it!
  49. This is great! Where did you find it?
