Question
Hello,

I was wondering if you might be able to provide some advice on a pair of lamps that I acquired. I got it at an estate sale and don't know anything about it. They look to be hand-painted porcelain, wood base, oriental.

Any other info you could provide or a value estimate would be VERY APPRECIATED. I have attached 4 photos.

Thank you,
James Lantis

Answer
Hi James,

It occurs to me that your lamps are not particularly old.  They certainly are not, and never have been kerosene oil lamps and as a result I really cannot be of further assistance, as my expertise lies with kerosene oil lamps I am unable to voice opinion outside of my scope.

Regards

Stuart
