Re: Hand Painted Italian Bisque Lamp

It probably post dates World War Two (1939-45), not much was exported out of Italy during that period because of "trading with the enemy" laws. Lamps like this were made in very large numbers, so values for them tend to be under $100.00 as is, at yardsales they often sell for $25.00 or less these days.
