SOLD: Antique Combination Wall / Table Lamp - $195 Postpaid

Post by TinfoilPhono »

SOLD.
This is a very early (Patented 1895) lamp which can be used as a desk lamp or hung on a wall. The socket has a weighted bottom and swivels within brass arms. A very cool display piece.

The socket is modern (and consequently safer than an antique) but appears to be inside an original brass shell so it's not noticeable from the exterior. The brass base, supports, and socket shell all have an attractive patina. It is rewired with modern cloth-covered twisted wire, and a new plug made to resemble a vintage bakelite original. I will include a new replica filament incandescent bulb for display, complete with its 'evacuation tip' as on early originals.

The price is $195 postpaid in the US by Priority Mail. Paypal or Zelle accepted.
