Brass Floor Lamp, 1960s

Listed by Lamplight Salvage

About

Adjustable arm, weighted base, new cloth cord and switch. Shade not included.

This lamp was the reading light in a Carroll Gardens study for most of its life, and you can tell: the brass has worn to a soft satin where hands adjusted it, with a darker patina everywhere else that we chose not to polish away. The arm swings out about 20 in and tilts at the knuckle, so it reaches over a sofa or an armchair. The round base is cast iron under a brass skin and does not tip.

At Lamplight Salvage we strip every lamp before it goes on sale. This one has a new socket, a twisted rust-colored cloth cord and an inline switch. It takes a standard bulb and a clip-on or harp shade. Height is 52 in.
