Lamp, Urn style , porcelain, with hand-painted green blossoms. Circa, 1940. Base and center shaft are brass. Over the years a lovely patina has surfaced. We have cleaned it with soft grade steel wool (0000). This is your personal hint to keep it shining. Takes up to a 100 watt bulb. New shade purchased to coincide with the lamp base style. All parts are new including, socket, high quality brass harp and finial. New brown electrical cord. Yes, it is completely restored as are all our lamps at ContessasHome.
