Does look like the high desert so Santa Barbara works. Debora
From an architectural detail. Certainly possible. Debora [ATTACH]
Agree re frame. Mid-century. The work itself doesn't appear to be that of a professional artist. Debora
It would be helpful to see the entire work both front and back including frame. Debora
Easier than that. J. J. Patrickson & Sons = 1959 to 1975. This is a very useful resource....
Where in Spain? And what type of building? And did Spain have an Egyptian Revival period? (I ask that seriously because I don't know.) Debora
I suspect a little something dashed off by an illustrious friend. Had personal meaning so merited framing. But locally rather than in a major...
The eBay scarf is genuine. Correct logo, correct Made in Italy tag. Best when there's any question of genuineness to have items authenticated....

Yes, could. Debora
Well, there's this DuPont connection. But the Guests bought it in the 1920s and called the house Templeton. That would be a more impressive...
Heavy silk twill. Hand-stitched hem. All good. Debora
Hum... Not so sure about the CHANEL scarf. The brand has never used a serif font. And luxury silk scarves are typically made in northern Italy....
If it were mine, I'd put the remaining shades up on eBay and and then freebie the rest. The integrity of the lamp wouldn't be hurt too much by...
Isn't that interesting. Must have meant something to someone. 1950s from the frame and framer's font, I'd think. Do you know the name of the...
That's 1960ish. The chimneys are replaceable, of course. Very doubtful that the painted shades would be. Debora
May I ask... Where in southwest Spain? Debora
The figure evokes Egypt but his posture with its elongation and curves isn't what one would expect. More typical of Asia. Indonesian carvings...
Lovely! How do you read the letters and symbols? Debora
I do think that's Asian. Curious to know if others agree. Debora
