Superb pair of Art Deco German porcelain bathing beauty lamps measure nearly 10 inches tall by 4" wide at their bases. The lamps are 3" thick from back to front. The stunning bathing beauties, who each cuddle with adorable puppies, measure 6" tall by almost 1.75" wide each. Both lamps are in wonderful condition with no chips, cracks, hairlines, fleabites or damages of any kind. I do see what looks like an overspill in the molding of one of the lamps. This area is seen on the inside of the lamp only and can be felt. This area looks like a hairline, but I cannot find any evidence of it on the front side of the lamp. Also, I used a strong flashlight to see if this area was a true crack, and it did not show through the porcelain...I believe it is an overspill from the molding of the lamp. Both lamps have nice cords...possible replacements (pic. # 12)...that show no cracks,cuts or areas of stress, and both lamps work well. I see marks on the back of one of the lamps (pic. # 11)--"14026--GERMANY" and "DEP" are seen. I also see a stylized "G" with skinny lines through it...Thanks so much to the author of a book about bathing beauties who contacted me and identified the marks on the lamp as the Carl Schneider Erban factory in Germany. "DEP" or Depose tells me that the pair was made for the French market. The other lamp bears no mark, but read more
