    I guess if there was anything printed on the bottom you would have said in your post. The lighting is not the best in your pics. Can you post something better? Is that a long crack in the one pic? It looks almost like a paper mache or are what looks like folds in the china, porcelain? All of this info would help to identify them better.

    The shape of the electrical plug will better identify the age of the lamp (assuming it hasn't been rewired) If the plug shape is round it's probably between 1925-1935. I'm not sure I'd go as late as 1950, it's similar to a lamp my grandmother had in a spare bedroom and she would have purchased it in the early 1940's.

    Barbara is correct,,power cord is always a way of aging a lamp,if the cord is original,my vote goes to the 50's!
