    This lamp was my parents' and I think they got it in the 1950s or 1960s. Unfortunately, I don't know anything more about it. I have tried to search for more info but can only find other lamps online that are similar but none exactly like this one. I am moving to another state and am trying to get info for my insurance for the movers. Also, I would like to find more info on Carl Falkenstein if indeed this is one of his lamps. I would also like to have this info to pass on to my daughter. Thank you for any info you can give to me.

      Definitely Carl Falkenstein Gone with the Wind hurricane lamp. The best way to get a value is to go to an apprasial website or antique dealer who specializes in victorian and other lamp styles

      Believe it or not I have the exact same lamp and the same problem as you. Can't find any info on this lamp. yours is the only match I have found in 25 years. Mine came from my grandmother.
