<p>[QUOTE="bercrystal, post: 465464, member: 88"]I would go early to try to scour the base & shade for marks. In the abscence of marks, I would have to judge it by the weight of the lamp & the feel of the glass shade. The better glass companies would finish their glass & you can usually tell by how smooth the glass feels to your touch. Older lamps have some weight to them that the newer ones do not because it cost more to produce. There is also the feel factor to the metal & the detail of the dragons.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
