Vintage 1950s Modernist Floor Lamp with Fiberglass Shade & Butterfly Motif

Wow.  Double Wow.

Those expressions nicely sum up this incredible 1950s floor lamp.  Not much else to say, is there?  Oh, there is one more thing:  the lamp is in near-mint condition.  Just a fantastic all around piece.

Brass-plated steel frame.  Great splayed legs with ball feet and cubist diamond design in the middle.  Fiberglass shade with butterfly motif throughout.  Pull chain for on/off.

Works well.

60" tall (five feet!) and 11" in diameter.

How happy would your favorite mid century modern afficianado be to find this lamp gracing their holiday decor? ;)

$125

  1. Any idea who makes this lamp? I am doing research on a lamp I just restored that has nearly the identical shade but is a wooden tripod design. The only thing that I have found that comes close is this lamp.

    thanks
