Re: 2 carved soapstone lamps
Actually they look more like white jade than soapstone, and pretty good quality at that. The brass bases look to be from the late 1920's, the last ones that I saw go at auction went for about $350.00.

We meet again! I thought jade but when I asked someone who I 'thought' was in the know, I was told soapstone. I wish I could find someone such as you in real time so I could get an accurate sense of what I have!
