Long Description
This piece was given to my Dad as a lamp. It seems to be made from some sort of pottery medium. The outer surface is painted shiny black, the "N" is embossed, with gold paint over it, as well as the frame of the picture. The picture itself looks like it could be from the Revolutionary War era, or maybe French or Spanish, as the soldier in the picture is wearing some type of uniform. There are no marks on the bottom, and it is indented about 1/8 inch underside. bottle is smooth, with no seam lines, and the lip appears to be part of the piece. I believe the original cork stopper is in place.
