My little brother just broke my mom's antique lamp that she was handed down from her grandmother. (OOPS!!) Anywho, I would like to find out if there are any more out there for sale. The lamp shade is fine, but the ceramic centerpiece is shattered. Pics are attached. I don't need the lamp shade, but the actual lamp would be great. I was thinking of giving it to her on Mother's Day.

I included a picture of the lamp shade for reference in helping finding if there are any more out there.

Thank you very much in advance!!

Ruh-Roh, someone's in trouble! You are sweet to try to find a replacement for Mother's Day, but it may be like trying to find a needle in a haystack, to match the existing shade.

That looks like frosted glass. Google 'vintage lamp globes' or 'vintage frosted glass globes'. Good luck--sorry about the size of pics.

Uh oh! The decoration on the lamp shade and the broken center globe matches. You'll need both pieces or an exact match of the globe to restore this lamp to its former glory.

You may find it of interest to poke around in the site below. It has may repair parts for vintage to late model lamps. However, I did not find a decorative globe to fit your lamp. You might be able to adapt a globe shade, the ones with openings at top and bottom.

If you're desperate and financial enough, these people may be able to custom paint a shade for you:
