[QUOTE="sabre123, post: 898102, member: 8258"]It's pretty. To have the fringe/tassels survive without being broken or chipped is a small miracle. It's kind of tough with just the one dark image to see exactly what it going on with this piece. A look at the lamp socket and a clear shot of the column would be helpful. How is the column attached to the base? Does it take a candelabra size bulb? What about height? As it sits, I would estimate this in the early 1900s through the early 1920s range.
