Gerald Thurston Style Two Headed Table Lamp, 1950s

About the Item

Unique double headed table lamp attributed to Gerald Thurston for Lightolier. A solid wood base and arms reaching up further with metal brass plated arms holding two lamp heads. The lamps both have an original fiberglass shade with different tan/brown/silvery lines decorating them. Brass has great patina and fading displaying the lamp’s age well with out being offensive. The lamp works in 3 ways as photographed. One turn for one lamp, one turn for the other, and one last turn for both lamps at the same time. The shade of one lamp appears more orange than the other due to aging. Both lamps are highly adjustable and can be used to direct light in multiple directions. The lamp base has its original finish that again appears aged while looking great. The lamp, as viewed in the first photograph, is 20” wide 22” tall and 8” deep. These dimensions are adjustable as you adjust the lamp shades.
