Description

I am looking for information and value on a pair of hand painted, urn shaped, porcelain lamps, that have been in my family for several generations.  They would have been purchased in New York City.  The date of purchase is where I'm a little hazy.  They were either purchased between 1898 and 1906 when my great grandparents came to America, or it's possible that they were a wedding gift to my grandparents when they married in 1923.

The lamps stand 36 inches from base to top of finial.  They sit on a pierced metal base and the cherubs holding up one of the urns are an unknown metal.  The lamp with the scene (that runs completely around the lamp) is signed by the artist.  The name is Rue or perhaps Rere or Rire (I can't tell)
