1950'S TIFFIN GLASS PARROT LAMP.
The shade is enameled orange green and brown with a gloss
finish. The parrot shaped globe is 12 inches tall and in great
condition with no chips or cracks. The overall height of the lamp
is about 14 inches. There are a few pinpoint flaws in the
enameled coating .
NOTE: The base is not completely original.
The original base had damage to the feet. We cut off the broken
feet and ground the rough edges from underside of the base.
(Click here to see the base photo). It was important to use part
of the original base because the top of the original base is
specially molded to fit the mold lines on the circle. We cut a
circular ring from a 1920's celluloid dresser jar to dress the
original base. (Click here to see ring).
The construction was completed with the addition of a glass
base from a 1920's wall lamp.(Click here to see new added glass
base).The three pieces fit together securely without any glue or
epoxy. We painted the new base and the ring with black glass
paint to match the original base top. The three pieces were then
firmly secured utilizing only the original brass light fixture on
which we left the original cloth electrical cord. The result is a new
secure base that is far more elegant looking than the original.
However, since the base is not original, we have priced it far
below prices listed for this lamp which you can see by simply
doing a search for the title shown above.
