And my favorite one at that. Its a double pull base with a couple of parrots on shade. Anyone have any idea what this is worth. Better yet, know where I can get the metal base repaired?

I have the same lampshade, signed by S. Swain, with pink flowers, green and brown leaves, that we bought at a modern store not too long ago. I don’t think that is an antique Tiffany lampshade.

I have a porch light (Hanging Lantern), supposedly made by Handel. It is of fine quality copper, and has the 'chipped ice' glass. I can't find a name anywhere on the lamp. The Handel book does not show it. Two retail on-line antique lamp sites list the idetical lamp as Handel. Any tips on how to positively identify it? I don't car about the value as it's hanging on our porch and I'm not taking it down to sell it :)!
