This wonderful old lamp came to us in an almost hopeless condition. The 10 inch hand painted milk glass ball shade was broken in several pieces and simply could not be saved. Fortunately as some of you may already know, my lovely wife Jacki is a wonderful artist and when she saw the beautiful dogwood flowers lying in pieces at the bottom of the box, she immediately asked me to find her an old ball shade so she could paint it to match the broken shade and replace it on this very unique old brass and pot metal lamp. As you can see from the photos, she did a marvelous job. This lamp is not 100 percent, but it is still quite a fine looking center draft oil lamp, made in America by Miller and if handled with some care, will last for decades to come. My wife has signed the shade and who knows what that could mean in years to come.
