    Hi I was wondering if someone could help me identify this ronson seated chinese girl desk lamp. I found a couple online with a different shade but none with the shade I have. Is mine original to the lamp or no? It needs some work so I might just try and sell it as is and let someone else restore it. If anyone has any info that would be great thanks!

    @rink28 - Not according to a couple of online auction descriptions, but it is pictured in Stuart L. Schneider's Ronson's Art Metal Works. Check WorldCat for the library nearest you, and have a look to ascertain the facts.

    So is this worth getting restored?

    Are you sure the figure is that of a girl? I ask because... It was my understanding that only men and boys wore queues in China.

    I believe it is. If you go on Google images and type in "ronson seated chinese girl lamp" that's what comes up. That's what they title it it as anyways. I guess it could it could be a boy too.
