1920s Table/Desk Lamp With Arts & Crafts Mission, Slag Glass, Jeweled Shade
Here’s a fine 1920s American table or desk lamp with a bejeweled (4 of them), slag glass arts and crafts shade from right around the same time, possibly earlier. The lamp and shade are all of solid brass with the exception of the iron weight under the brass shell on the base of the lamp. There are two points of adjustment, one above the shade and one at the rear of the base, both pictured. The bakelite switch on the top of the base had to be bypassed as it couldn’t be restored to function properly (in spite of hours of trying). There’s an in-line switch just behind the lamp base: on, off. Standing about 15 inches tall. The base measures about 7 front to back and about 4 wide.
