Art Deco Indian chief lamp

[Mattern]

So I spent the day restoring this lamp. It's approaching 100 years old. As a Curator I'm pretty good at restoration. It is a plaster piece. This had a cloth electric cord. I repaired chips and cracks. It now looks like new. The back glow is ideal.

Nice work there

Native collecting isn't just artifacts for me. I don't go for anything newer than 1950 collectables Will. Glad you like it. K

That’s cool.. Good job Kim.

Thanks Hal, I searched high and low, couldn't find another like it. Probably not many left, Old Plaster art is fragile. I was sure you would like this. k

So Hillbilly to make it even better I got a LED lamp and painted it red on the bottom orange in the middle and yellow to the top. Now it really looks like a sunset.
