Van Briggle Lamp ” Daughter of the Flame”
Question:
Hello – I bought this lamp at an estate auction. It is not marked. Is it a Van Briggle? Becca
Answer: Hi Becca
Oh, yes, it is Van Briggle. We call her the daughter of the flame. Did it come with a butterfly shade? Think this is the first Van Briggle question we have had. It’s hard to tell how old it is, without a pic of the bottom. Still a nice lamp, value is around 300.00 ro so. thanks, steve n rose (oh, look on the back of the base, there will probably be the AA van briggle mark there.)
