    Welcome Mejjoo. The pottery people usually like to see the marks on the bottom, so they can help you. Good luck! :)

    I've sold some of these lamps, not uncommon.
    The red felt appears to be a replacement on the bottom.

    Hi Mejjoo!

    Welcome to Antiquers........

    Your pictures are very small, too small for detail.

    But from what I can see, it's not of the best quality and probably not older than from the 1930's at best. More likely later than that.

    When antique dolls were highly sought after, figural lamps similar to yours were also quite popular. Collectors looked for those made in Germany, etc. for their quality.....just as German, French, dolls were sought after for their quality also. (Some still do command a high price).

    This is just my opinion based on doll collecting, so wait for others to chime in.

    Sadly not a high ticket item.....$5 to $25.00.

    On the Support and Testing Forum, there are posts how to use an iPhone and android to do post pictures. Use good light; a plain background, take time to focus, show us everything especially marks and like @judy said use full image. See you soon.

    Please don't be embarrassed. It is I who read your post wrong. How I learned was to observe members who posted items in the category of my item and based on the responses, posted photos like them
