<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lucille.b, post: 4443942, member: 51&quot;]I could not leave this at the thrift ($24.99).&nbsp; (And have 7 day return if needed.)&nbsp; Just never seen similar! Bakelite era plug, lamp maybe 1950s plus or minus?</p><p><br /></p><p>A few questions.&nbsp; The pock marks on the entire lamp appear to be original because the paint looks original and seems to fill in those spaces.&nbsp; Thoughts? Possible it was taken from an antique mold or something??</p><p><br /></p><p>All of the hardware seems older, noticed the prongs on the plug read: Dominican Republic.&nbsp; Would that just be for the plug or is that a clue to age of some kind.&nbsp; I&#039;ve been obsessed with vintage lamps forever, sold many, still have several in my house, but have never seen a Kwan Yin one. </p><p><br /></p><p>Nothing under the base, just open.&nbsp; Base section is metal.</p><p><br /></p><p>No shipping this one, I was going to try on CL.</p><p><br /></p><p>Has anyone ever seen similar?&nbsp; There are a few on Ebay (asking over $1K, unsold, might be better, but none like this) mine is quite tall, the figure alone 27&quot; but base to top of finial is 41&quot;.&nbsp;&nbsp; [USER=37]@verybrad[/USER] have you ever run across one of these?&nbsp; I&#039;d happily sell this for $80-100.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]381726[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]381727[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]381728[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]381729[/ATTACH] </p><p>What do you think about the pock marks?&nbsp; Original... or?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]381730[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]381731[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]381732[/ATTACH] </p><p>Came with this shade, obviously not original.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]381733[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]381734[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
