RARE Van Briggle Indian Maiden at Pond Turquoise Blue Large Lamp Butterfly Shade

Description

Here’s a Great Vintage Van Briggle Large Table Lamp.  This is an Estate Find and needs to be re-wired and assembled.  It is a factory lamp, she has a hole at the top of her neck for the metal shaft, how you get it installed I can’t say - looks challenging as you can’t see the hole when looking up into the base.  There is another hole on the side for the cord, and the Van Briggle logo is incised next to it. The base is also incised with “Van Briggle” and other markings.  The shade has the lower circular metal piece separate and the blue stringing that holds it on the shade needs replacing.  The stringing at the top is fraying and incomplete so that may need to be replaced.  There are some losses within the shade like the part of a butterfly’s wing as shown in picture 5.  Picture 8 shows a small indent at the base that I’m pretty certain is not a little chip but rather just a manufacturing flub.  I see no other damage to the pottery but there are some of those pencil like marks you often find on these Van Briggle glazes.  The metal parts have rust and tarnish.  Note there is no harp on which to mount the shade, and no finial. The base measures approximately 15 and 1/2” long.  Please consult the shipping calculator for shipping costs, Thanks
