<p>[QUOTE="justjeff, post: 559129, member: 5633"]Hi everyone. I've delved into something I have little experience in, mostly blindly. Based on my glass experience, this would appear to be a Victorian-era hobnail shade on a converted oil lamp which has the original burner. The shade is white glass with a cream overlay. The body appears to be brass (?) and I'm clueless as to what stone that is. Could anyone tell me more about this and if my instincts are in the ballpark? Would love to find a maker and year but any little bit more I could learn would be great! Measures 18" tall and no maker's mark that I can find. Thanks![ATTACH=full]170914[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]170915[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]170916[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]170917[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]170918[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]170928[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
