1920's Industrial Desk Lamp

About the Item

An early English industrial desk lamp. A particularly good articulated desk lamp in dark nickel plated copper with an excellent patina. The base is weighted with cast iron & the underside of the riveted, spun copper shade has removable glazing. An absolutely beautiful lamp & my favorite piece of lighting for quite some time. Wired in twisted black flex. 1920's Wear commensurate with age, very good overall glass insert to the shade is likely a replacement to the original. Due to the nature of the shade, this lamp should be used with a low heat bulb. Height measurement is taken with the lamp in the min image. All electrical items should be checked and / or installed by a qualified electrician prior to use & if shipped outside of the UK, may require a rewire.
