GALLE' COBRA SCONCES

A friend gave me a pair of bronze Cobra Sconces that she found at a flea market, 30 years ago.....I found an identical pair for sale on EBAY....for $2500.....when I asked my friend about them, she said....."I was looking for something you'd like....for under $50......and got you the "snake" sconces......beauty is relative, I know......but when another friend found a Tiffany Studios Nautilus Shell Lamp for $150...in an old shoe box at a junky antique store in Shaker Heights, the dealer just said...."you can have it for $135!" The lamp had been there for years.......
