    7.5" W x 21.5" H x 7.5" D
    A hand-painted table lamp, converted from oil to electric. This elegantly handcrafted porcelain lamp contains brass tone Brenner Kosmos oil fixtures. The vibrant scene depicts an 18th century family in a rural setting. The electrical components utilize a rotary switch. Anyone have an idea of date. I have found no markings.

      You may have to take brass bottom off to see if mark is under it??

      Thank you dizzy. But I think it was an oil lamp from the top part

      I'll see if it's possible to take off bottom and let you know . It looks to be soddered on. Not sure I should take it apart . I'll post a pic of bottom.
