Large Rose Tapestry Style Lamp-Possible Royal Bayreuth

Collectibles : Lamps, Lighting

 

This large Victorian looking lamp stands 33" tall with the shade. The base of the lamp is ornate brass. There is beading around the rim & 4 raised areas. Two contain mythological faces and two contain fruits/nuts. The body of the lamp is wonderful! It contains wild rose floral scenes and a block fence with a wrought iron top. The leaves and flowers have gold gilt thru out. The texture is tapestry like due to the way it was painted. The rich colors of greens, pinks, yellows, & teal are fabulous. I was told it could be Royal Bayreuth but the base is covered with a heavy felt bottom which prevents me from seeing any markings. The brass collar has minor cracks (see photo) where it attaches to the body. The top is decorated with 4 petals. I estimate the age to be between 1900-1950. The shade shown in the photo came with the lamp but the inside is torn. It could be fixed but I would recommend a new shade. I will ship the shade if the buyer wants to try and fix it.
