This amazing Detroit machine shop lamp is as rare as they get. If you collect industrial lighting then you already know how important this example is. This striking 14″ x 6.5″ delicate mirrored mercury glass shade is impossible to find intact. It’s mounted on a complex 62″ (Woodward Machine Co.) articulated arm. The unique base bracket is designed to hold the lamp pipe horizontal or vertical…. So it’s easy to mount the lamp on a desk, wall or ceiling. Every part of this lamp is unique. In fact there are no 2 joints alike on this all original lamp. The lamp is rewired to the double brass socket with twisted fabric covered wire. Included are a matching pair of real antique bulbs with “squirrel cage” filaments…. $1200
