Up for sale is a Vintage Antique Griffin / Gryphon / Dragon / Gargoyle Enameled Banquet Parlor GWTW Oil Lamp, with a Gold Winged Griffin Ball Shade Globe. This is a beautiful ornate lamp! I've seen a few griffin ball shades before, but never one with an enameled lamp, also displaying dragons / griffins and gargoyles maybe? This is a very rare find. The lamp & shade are unmarked, but the burner is marked "Duplex". The base of the lamp has a Cloisonné appearance.The lamp measures 21" tall, to the top of the glass chimney. The ball shade is in beautiful condition - no chips or cracks on the fitters or rims. It's a white, somewhat translucent shade, with a gold winged griffin on 2 sides. The shade measures 6 7/8" tall & is 6 1/2" in diameter. The flush opening is 3" in diameter; the fitter opening (with a lip) is 4" in diameter. The gilt/gold griffins are in beautiful condition with minimal wear (paint wear, scuffs etc...).The lamp is untested, but the wick does move up & down. The brass parts display some tarnish & discoloration and there's dust in the crevices. The enamel is a bright, beautiful blue with earth tones mixed in. There are no chips in it, and you can see the age by the "crackle" look in the background. The clear glass chimney has no chips or cracks, it's unmarked, and it's oval shaped (not round).Please use zoom function
