Description:
This listing is for a really great and elusive Baccarat Rose Tiente Berger Lamp in, well, what has come to be know as the Swirl pattern.  

I estimate this piece was made ca. 1900-1920s but cannot say for certain.  The Berger font and wick are brand new, never used only opened to make sure it fit on the lamp, which was never used by us.

The top fits perfectly with no loose feeling or wiggle.


Purpose of a Berger Lamp is to help purify the air in a room, especially when one is ill with a cold or the flu.  Who knows if they work or not...I will say they can help with odors without masking the odor, rather it seems to just burn the odor out of the room.  If that makes any sense what-so-ever.  Just trying my best to describe the purpose.
 
Condition:
The condition of this piece very good. It does have a few small flakes, as shown, on the ground portion of the top where the Berger insert sits. Other than that it loos as if it saw little to no use in it's life.  Beyond the mentioned and shown flakes there are no other chips, cracks, scratches, repairs or restorations.

All of our items come from a smoke-free, pet-free home...even though we love the puppy dawgs.  And the kitties too...but just the good kitties not the naughty kitties.
Maker:
Baccarat, France.
 
Era Made:
I cannot say with any degree of certainty, when this piece might have been made.  It could have been made during any of the well defined periods from the Aesthetic Era thru the Art Nouveau period and Victorian Era and maybe even until maybe the 1920s Art Deco Era.  But were I to be forced to guess, my instinct would say somewhere ca. 1900-1920s.
 
Measurements:
This lamp stands about 5-7/8" tall with cover in place and about 4-1/2" with the cover removed. At the widest point it's about 2-7/8" in diameter with the base (bottom rim) about 2" in diameter.
 
Items Included
Summary:

This listing includes the Berger lamp with cover as well as the Berger burner and wick set (never used) as shown.

Domestic Shipping: International Shipping:
This listing is being offered with calculated shipping. Please use the link at the bottom of the page to determine shipping to your location.

As always there are never any hidden fees that will suddenly appear after the auction ends. What the calculator shows is what you will pay and INCLUDES insurance. We do everything possible to ensure your new found treasures arrive safe and sound...we PROMISE... :)

As needed, all items are double boxed.  We offer this at no additional cost to our buyers.

We take the extra steps to ensure your items arrive safe and sound.  We do this because we feel it is up to the SELLER to deliver your items in the same condition as when you won them.  We cannot say this strongly enough...it is wrong for a seller to pack as if the insurance if there to make up for poor packing.  We use new packing materials, though the occasional box or peanuts is/are recycled.  

Just know your new found goodie will be packed with extreme care.  We stand behind our packing should anything ever happen during shipping.  Should damage happen during shipping, please email or call right away and we will work with you to address the issue.  These things can happen (well, just once in over 9-years selling online), but it is not your fault as they buyer...

We also prepare each item for shipping when we list it for sale on eBay (not to worry we take lots of pictures.)  This now makes it more possible to do our best to provide Same Day Shipping if you pay using PayPal (this excludes e-check payments as they take several days to clear.)
Please see end of listing and use the shipping calculator for International shipping costs to you.  If you feel the shipping is too costly to your location then please either do not bid or just make a change in your bid amount.  International fees are what they are, we have no control over them or postal regulations.

If you are  are intending to pay via PayPal we can ship anywhere in the world where PayPal offers accounts.  We must, however,  ship only to the address provided to us by PayPal in the payment notification.

Customs fees are the responsibility of the winning bidder and are not included in the shipping fees.  The buyer is responsible for knowing the postal and importation laws/regulations of their country not us the seller.  We are fair in our shipping fees and will not negotiate shipping fees.

PayPal, insurance and credit card companies REQUIRE the ability to provide ONLINE proof of shipping/delivery.  Therefore items, won by international buyers, selling for more then US$250 who are paying with PayPal, we only ship via USPS International Express Mail. Though for items selling under US$250, it might be possible to ship via USPS International Priority Mail please see the available options for your country at the end of this auction.   We cannot ship using methods other than indicated in each individual listing.

Combined Shipping:
When possible we try and combine auction items to reduce shipping fees as much as possible for you.  Please just send a note if the items you are bidding on have significantly different ending times.  Otherwise we'll send an adjusted invoice soon as auctions are over.

Thanks for looking and hope you have fun shopping and enjoy our items...
