The artwork is blue, purple, green, with gold outlining everything. The designs are of grapes, pomegranate, and leaves. The inscription on the bottom looks like C&F Enterprises. I took the best possible pictures before batteries dying in camera. Not pictured but on the bottom of one candlestick is a round gold made in china tag, and a tage that says "article may poison the food, for decorative purposes only". Any help is appreciated.
The lamp is grey and white marble and carved beautifully with a shape that is not too simple but not overly ornate. It does have a couple small brown spots which I assume is water damage and/or scratches but they are minimal. The base of the lamp is square and the body is made up of 6 pieces of marble carved into different shapes and attached after the fact. The hardware that holds the bulb may not be original and it is also been shaken loose, though it stays upright and holds a bulb in it. It is just not particularly sturdy. The hardware's connection to the lamp itself is intact, just the tube that holds the threading for the bulb to screw into is loose from it's base. The cord is a brown one. It is original to the piece and has a 2-pronged plug. Black felt covers the bottom of the base, perhaps covering the hallmark. The cord has some paint marks on it but is not worn through in any areas.
I am trying to help a friend of ours whose wife just recently passed away very unexpectedly. He would like to know more information about these dolls. He knows they are very old. She has a body that is soft and a head made of some type of ceramic. He nose has a little damage. She has a slip with a green coat. The hands are very dark.
