Really, i'd like to know if it's really a Tiffany.
It's been through a lot in it's time...
I'm not positive but I might have replaced the socket.
and I see that a child has tried to paint accents here and there on it but luckily not too bad.
I dont know if it has the quality of a tiffany but a very nice lamp indeed. Have you found any marks on the bottom of the lamp base or the top of the shade. Seeing and handling makes a lot of difference. LOts of luck Was the base polished.
In the other picture it looks a different color.
My grandmother (age 93) has one table top and two floor models of this exact lamp and has always said they were her Tiffany lamps.

Before I was was aware that it could be something substantial, I had picked it up off the floor more than once and stood it back upright because of kids being kids, etc... I figured it 'had' to be a higher quality or it wouldn't have made it.
There was never any extensive damage more than a miss shaped shade and blown bulb. I would gently round it back out and move the lamp over more out of the way.
As far as being signed or marked, I don't believe I would know what or where to look.
