Many thanks for any help.

ANSWER: It appears to be from the Arts and Crafts Movement (late 1800s to early 1900s. Who is it signed by? Does it have a shade?

Thanks

QUESTION: I think the first name is Llantu and I can't make out the last name.  It's complete but without the original shade.

Answer
My best advice is to research that name and maybe you can find other pieces similar and estimate a price. I don't want to tell you a price because it appears to be fairly rare and may be worth more than I would know at this point. I say this because I haven't seen one like this before.

Thanks
