<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 159239, member: 37"]I don't see anything that suggests that this lamp is truly old. In particular, the finish, shade, and cord are wrong for an old lamp. I also would not expect there to be that little drop finial under the fixture. I realize that this probably holds the light in but it was usually done differently on old lamps. I suppose that this could be refinished, the shade replaced, and rewired but I would need convincing. I could not find the ebay listing (didn't look too hard) and would also really like to see your version for more details. Otherwise, I did find this truly old lamp that the figure on this one appears to be copied from. </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://thumbs2.ebaystatic.com/d/l225/m/m7XGvmD8T14BKQgUkgzZFlA.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rare-art-deco-nude-lady-woman-lamp-marble-brass-statue-antique-vintage-nouveau-/142030713225" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rare-art-deco-nude-lady-woman-lamp-marble-brass-statue-antique-vintage-nouveau-/142030713225" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rare-art-deco-nude-lady-woman-lamp-marble-brass-statue-antique-vintage-nouveau-/142030713225</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
