    Can anyone help me to determine what style of lamp these are? I know they are some type of Shoji lamp but I can find no info on the web about this specific style. It has preserved wild flowers between rice paper and glass but there is a space b/w the glass and rice paper. the flowers are not pressed...

      OK, i hope those are better. the only type of makers mark on these lamps is on the plug, which is an anchor

      Thanks! they are very unique and they look fantastic when lit. I have been scratching my head for a while on their origins though. It's possible that they are from Thailand since the family I acquired them from where from there and they made trips often. their entire house was stocked with authentic Thai furniture, clothes, drinks, decor, ect.. thats about all i know. thanks for any help you can give!
