This stately 27 1/2" Signed Solid Crystal Waterford Table Lamp with Custom Waterford Shade in the ever popular Lismore Pattern is absolutely stunning! What makes it rare and exceptional is that it can not be purchased anyw else since it was awarded or presented as a symbol of excellence to a professional golfer by the PGA and subsequently, has the PGA symbol of excellence engraved into the crystal on the front of the lamp. If you look closely, you will see that t is a subtle frosted medallion insignia on the front, center. The etched wording reads, " Professional Golfers' Association of America ". The Professional Golf Association is of course, more commonly referred to as the PGA. In addition to the wording, the insignia includes what must be the PGA's trademark, two golf clubs crossed in the center . Just below is the date 1916 that I assume is to commemorate the year the PGA was founded. Provenance Unfortunately, the terms of the consignment prohibits me to divulge the name of the professional golfer that was awarded this lamp to enhance the sale price. However, it may be possible to provide verification of this information to the winning bidder only.
