Banker's/ Desk Lamp by "Pittsburgh Lamp Co." Reverse Painted Shade, ca. 1920's

About the Item

This beautiful little lamp can be used as a desk lamp by just adjusting the lower knuckle to the highest point, which we did for our measurement, or you can lower it with that same knuckle. You can change the angle of the shade with the 2nd knuckle. The beauty is in the lovely painted scene on the shade and the rich gilt patina on the base, which is highlighted with red accent. This really is a little gem. Very high quality and guaranteed to be made by the Pittsburgh Lamp Co. We've sold enough of their lamps to recognize their work. So much more fun than the usual green shade bankers lamp that you see everywhere. Be the only kid on the block to have the most beautiful and high quality banker's lamp.
