Good morning, Dima,

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
This is a Pietro TOSO lamp (it's difficult to read the inscription and it does look like TORO. His works are modestly valued on the auction market; here are a few recent auction sales of his works to give you an idea of what his pieces are currently bringing and which I have based my valuation on:
