Excited Cockatoo Perfume Lamp from Germany

Collectibles : Lamps, Lighting

 

A colorful perfume lamp of the 'Too persuasion, perched atop a ring and perfectly posed just for you, with crest feathers raised and left wing lifted as if begging for a tickle! This gaily hued fellow was made in Germany in the 1940's and has a well for your perfume placement on his offered wing. Surrounding the well are holes for the emitting of the said perfume. He is made of porcelain that's finished in a shiny glaze and has glass eyes that glow when the nightlight sized bulb is lit. Since he's old and from Germany rewiring was necessary. He's shown sans the wiring in the pic (I was eager to show him off) but rest assured he'll be wired for action when he lands on your doorstep! Should you like him as is, you are welcome to take $20.00 off of the asking price. His condition is excellent despite his advanced years, and he's marked with a logo on his tail feathers that identify him as a product of the Leube & Co. factory (this mark was used between 1945-1965). There are marks on the bottom as well (see pic). Birdie measures 8.5" tall, 4" wide across his chest and 3 5/8" x 4 1/8" at his base. A splendid fellow for all of your senses (well, three of them, anyway) and certain to please. If you like this lamp we invite you to browse our shop for others, all just as charming & cute!
