Up for yourbidding pleasure is a signed Pittsburgh reverse and obverse painted tablelamp. This lamp has a16" chipped ice shade that is reverse and obverse painted with a beautiful scene ofa pair of swans swimming in a pond surrounded by trees. This beautiful lamp stands approx. 21" tall. The shade is free of any chips, cracks or repairs, wear commensuratewith age. The highly detailed and much desired Arrowroot base is originalto the shade and is equipped with... 2 original Bryant pull chain sockets with theporcelain interiors. It has been rewired with a period brown cloth cord and an old plug. It is signed with P.L.B. & G. Co. #2154 on the loader plate. I haveseen this base alone sell for over $300.00. The lamp has some relaxing warm colors that are strong and vivid. This shade has some of the best artwork thatI have seen on a Pittsburgh. I wouldconsider this lamp comparable to a Handel but priced much more reasonable.

TO ALLPOTENTIAL BUYERSBiddersplease remember that I am selling antiques and that there should be a degree ofexpectation on your part in knowing that there will be normal aging and minor imperfectionstowards an item that is 75 to 100 years old. These items are commensurate withage, meaning they are old. Chances are if there aren't any, it's a newer itemand you shouldn't want it anyways. In other words, a minor blemish on somemetalwork belonging to a large shade or a 1/16 by 1/16 of a paint flakemissing, please try and be reasonable. I really don't want to do a refundbecause the finial ( typically a 10.00 piece ) isn't perfect on a 2, 000.00lamp. I always describe the important aspects towards condition reports andsometimes my eye misses what I deem immaterial issues such as theaforementioned sentence. It seems the more experienced an antique dealer orbuyer is, the more understanding of condition they are. That being said, if youthink you're going to be a difficult buyer because you want perfection in a 100year old piece, please purchase another Ebay seller's product. Ebay has made itvery difficult for sellers in the past few years yet I'm a good seller whowants to be fair and all I ask for is a fair buyer to do business with. Thanksfor your understanding.
