Vintage 50s 60s Metal Table Lamp Mid Century Modern Atomic Era Retro Lighting
Item: For your consideration we are presenting for sale a vintage atomic era table lamp. Circa’50s /’60s. It features a round metal disc at the base, with three (3) evenly spaced metal cylinders that project upward, each ending in a round gold metal atomic ball. The brass metal socket cup that surrounds the actual light socket has five-pointed star cut-outs (see photos); we believe this is to allow the light to shine out from the holes when the lamp is turned on. We are uncertain as to the maker – the lamp does not appear to be signed, and there are no labels. There is no shade present – that’ll be left up to the purchaser to provide on their own. It’ll make a great addition to any mid century modern or atomic-themed home! The lamp stands approx. 20 tall (measured from the bottom of the base to the top of the brass cup surrounding the light socket). The round metal base measures approx. 7.5 in diameter. The brass cut surrounding the light socket measures approx. 3.75″ tall x 4.25″ in diameter (measured across the top opening). Condition: Overall the lamp is in very good cosmetic condition, but it does have some wear that we’ll mention here. First off, the lamp needs to be rewired as it is not in working order at the moment. It’s a simple and inexpensive job that can be tackled by any licensed electrician. The round base at the bottom may have been repainted at one point in time – there are some minor flakes to the color that is currently there (see photos). The brass cup surrounding the socket is very slightly out of round at the top edge (see photo). It’s not really noticeable, but we are mentioning it for accuracy. Aside from that, the lamp is very presentable and is ready for a new home! As with all vintage lighting, we always strongly recommend having a licensed professional inspect the item prior to long-term use. Please ask them and we will respond back to you in a timely manner.
