Christine...Dave Peterson IDed it & said Brian had the pictures from one of his trips which trip or where I don't know. Actually I have some marked Harrach I could share with him for his site, but right now until his email is working I'm out to lunch although I did ask Dave if he had another email addy for him.

Thanks Craig...well it could be its not Loetz, but I just go by what I was informed, however if its from a museum picture whereby the museum has faulty attributions I certainly see your point. Well back to finding a place for my third Egyptian Revival lamp that I rehabbed.

I would love to see your lamp... we happen to collect figural Egyptian revival lamps also... along with Art Deco, Machine Age and Art Nouveau figural lamps.........

OK Craig these are not great photos I took tonight, but it will give you an idea. The latest ER lamp is on the far right of the three & was a nightmare to rewire since two of the four copper arms were soldered onto the ledge which made no difference in the late 20's since wire had already been run in the channels, but removing the old cloth wire was not easy & I had to use a metal cutting bit to cut the ledge & rechannel into the arms. There are a few Frankarts, some misc. Deco & the monster Northwood Nouveau Dancing Ladies which is a brute as far as size & weight. Ken

Nice lamps.....  Here are some of ours......  we do almost all figural... Some non figural one also, and I even have some glass lamps!!  Imagine that.....  Mostly  pics I had, a couple I snapped tonight......

This is about half of our collection......  I actually have a remote control system that turns them all off or on at once..... and allows for difference brightness settings....  Pretty Lazy huh??

I Love lamps almost as much as glass......  I really Love the huge Mid Century Turquoise Marbro lamp.... Swedish glass..... The glass itself is around 36 inches tall...  The best of both worlds...

Very, very nice Craig. We certainly have something in common as I cannot resist older interesting lamps & I too find hunting good lamps to be just as good as hunting glass even though that probably sounds like heresy here. Matter of fact the most expensive piece of glass I ever owned was a Cambridge crystal Monkey lamp, one of a kind that was used to #1 clean out the new mold & #2 test to see if the pattern was strong. It even had  the tiny slivers of the metal shavings from the new mold embedded in it. Swore I'd never part with it & had it six years, but got a Grandfather offer 5 years ago that I simply could not refuse. Ken

looking for something else I came across this which has some similarities - has been 'attributed' to Stevens and Williams but no reference - I've not seen any that would confirm that but my knowledge of S&W is very very limited.
Just thought it was interesting in the similarities though.

Far more likely to be Bohemian than S&W IMHO. I also think the one in Rose's link might be Bohemian. (Stevens and Williams is often a default US ID)

I agree
