[QUOTE="bluumz, post: 9419614, member: 649"]I believe it is a plain white "blank" lamp painted and assembled by an amateur named Isabelle Granger in 1977. I don't believe it was ever a vase. The lamp base may have been new when the painting was done. Hobbyists often painted white "blanks" and then had them fired. My mother used to do it back in the 1970s/80s, there was a ceramics store in our area that offered classes. It's a pity that poor Isabelle wasn't gifted with a bit more artistic talent![/QUOTE]
