To me they all appeared to be in the sweet spot of maybe 1895-1940 or so. I don’t usually do lamps but I was able to find makers marks on the bases that made me happy enough to risk a few hundred on a couple. If I had room I’d have taken them all probably. This shade was my favorite. The base is Bradley & Hubbard. I would love to get some opinions on the shade. Is it correct to the general era I mentioned? I don’t imagine anyone would be be able to ID a maker but you never know. I really love the colors. I was dead set on flipping it but I’m really falling hard for it. The last thing in the world I need is a stained glass lamp but it’s gonna be hard to let go.The other one is panels of glass and I hope it’s old but I question it a little bit. I’ll post that one another time. Can anyone tell me anything about this one by seeing a few photos? It appears B&H shades are mostly slag panels. I’ve assumed this shade is not also by B&H? 235A6C59-459B-43CF-A306-7E7EB54610FC.jpeg 28EC59E8-F372-472E-B046-194E65528A4C.jpeg

    It's beautiful. The shade could also be B & H. That would be a keeper for me no matter who made it.



    I've had mine over 40 years ago.

    Yours reminds me of one that I bought years ago and still love as much as day one.

    I'm working on the image to post here.

    The shade to yours looks "pleated". A beautiful detail that none of mine have.

    Mine is a panel lamp....the glass in yours looks to be set individually?

    (The relatives are really mine............not "instant".:cat:)

    Nice to have nicely framed old family photo!!! I love your shade as well. The metal work over the panels is more complex than most I’ve seen.

    I believe all the glass is individually set yes. It was a lot of work for whoever made it. My pépère worked in stained glass so it always has an extra appeal to me. They also had a leaded stained glass bankers lamp/shade. I really wish I had picked it up too but they wanted $300-$400 on that one I think. I could have gotten it for a decent chunk less but it’s tough to house too many delicate lamps for me.

    I have several antique panel lamps and love them all.

    Not all of them perfect, one or two have a cracked panel, but I love them still. I think I might have paid $250 for the one I pictured.

    B&H made a variety of lamps. Shade could be right for this. Shade, at least, looks period to the lamp.
