    Hi!....This is todays haul....via an Estate sale.....I went looking for another Korean chest but it had been sold....so I looked around and stumbled upon these Lamps....they were actually being use to light the area....it was the last day so I asked if I could purchase them for $10 for the pair....the guy said yes...(silently I was on cloud 9...meaning I was very pleased).......these are a pair of Mid Century Drip Glaze Lamps...approx 18.5 in ht...7.25 in w at widest point....minus the lamp shades and other than a little dust/dirt etc...they are in great condition with no apparent damage...there are a couple of areas around the bottom of the metal base where its turning green....but other than that they are a great buy...... rsz_vintage_mid_century_modern_drip_glaze_lamps_10_005.jpg rsz_vintage_mid_century_modern_drip_glaze_lamps_10_007.jpg rsz_mid_century_drip_glaze_lamps_after_cleaning_002.jpg rsz_mid_century_drip_glaze_lamps_after_cleaning_004.jpg rsz_mid_century_drip_glaze_lamps_after_cleaning_003.jpg

    The plugs look 70s to me, perhaps 10 years either way.

    What do the shades look like? Any tags or labels?

    It will probably remain a mystery, but you could take one apart and check the bottom of the pottery.

    Plugs look original to me. Late 60s, I would say. If I had to guess, Haeger?

    Upon a google search a lamp like mine showed up listed as Mid Century Modern Drip Glaze Beige Ombre....on a site snupps.com......I haven't taken the base off yet....sometimes trying to screw everything back together and get it tight enough ...is a job in itself......

    ....no there are no visible tags or lables.....it did not come with shades....the shade supports are broken off or something the guy at the Estate sale said.....which is how I think people just didn't notice them sitting on the back of the table covered by a layer of dirt.....I wish that I had gone through the whole house to check for other MCM lamps....these were found in the basement
