$960.00
DescriptionA colorful enameled glass lamp base that was a tank for kerosene but has now been turned into an electric lamp. The birds in the trees with flowers are lovely.
A heavy cast iron base with floral scrollwork and abstract designs has been topped with a Bristol glass tank. The glass is a pale blue and has been painted with gilt, deep brown, green leaves, and flowers in many assorted colors. The glass is topped by a copper-colored metal and above this is the harp and light switch. It is topped with an egg-shaped wood finial. The cord has an old two prong plug.
I could find no marks or labels. There is paper on the base but no maker label remains.
