THIS IS HANDS DOWN the most unique and beautiful piece I have had the privilege to offer to you yet! This is a very big VINTAGE CHALKWARE statue/TV Lamp made by Michigan Lamp Company in 1958(marked on bottom of piece see pic # 9).I have been unable to procure any information on this obviously vanished company who made this beautiful and very RARE piece of art.This is gorgeous! Look at the pictures to see the very fine,careful work that went into this fantastic piece!I have searched the web for another exactly like it and I was unable to find another one,This very well COULD be the last one in existence! This IS a pretty BIG piece! The flower in the foreground has a small ding on one of the petals(see red pointer pic # 9),and another small ding on petal right below that(same flower),pretty much normal for vintage chalkware THIS OLD.This piece is a lamp also,and it DOES still work,it has a small night light sized bulb behind the foreground flower(see pic # 7).The light can be turned on and off by the turn switch on the rear of the statue(see pic # 8,red pen pointing). Note the bright blue expressive eyes in pics #'s 4 & 5,on both Mary and Jesus,VERY professionally painted by a artisan,it just doesn't get any better than THIS! This is not only a very rare vintage item,not only a lamp from 1958,it is,in it's own right,a masterpiece
