Blue Monday Hurricane Lamp

Smiling Sally is hosting Blue Monday. Please check her site to see others.


I'm sharing my blue hurricane lamp. It was my daughter's, she obtained it used, but when she moved she didn't want to take it with her. So I gladly took it. Isn't it pretty? It has hand painted flowers on the top and bottom. The top holds a regular light bulb and the bottom holds a night light. It's 21" tall. I think it may be Quoizel, but I'm not sure. Does anyone know how to tell?

My mom had a pink one very similar. There was a light bulb in the top and a sort of night light in the bottom bowl. Yours is such a pretty shade of blue.
