Pretty vintage mod century modern table / wall lamp, believed Italian, c. 1950s. This is a terrific beautifully made piece, easily in line with any of the finest Italian firms of the period ala, Arteluce and Stilnovo etc.
Consists of a sculptural brass metal leg base support / upright leading to a green metal shade diffuser. The diffuser can be tilted to adjust just the light direction. There is a little metal loop at the very bottom of the upright, which allows the lamp to also be used as a wall sconce (see pics). The on / off switch is located on the cord.
The lamp retains all of its European charm right down to the euro wall plug. A plug adapter will be provided so you can use the lamp in the US with no problem. It also uses a European thread light bulb (an adapter will be provided as well, so you may use it with a standard American small thread light bulb).
Measures about 11.25” high. At the base its about 8" by 4.75" and the diffuser is 5.5" long by 3.75" diameter at the opening.
The lamp is all original, working fine and in great condition for its age with some typical patina age to the brass and a little paint wear on the top of the diffuser (see close up pic) that has no affect on the overall appearance when in a room.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(by bidding on this auction, you agree to the following)
PAYMENT
Payment from US and Canada bidders may be by Paypal, Check, or Money Order (overseas bidders please see your terms below). Payments are expected to be mailed (“postmarked”) or made via Paypal within THREE (3) days of receiving your Ebay invoice. Items paid for by check will be held for clearance a minimum of 7 business days.
SHIPPING
Buyer pays shipping and insurance or may pick up in the Los Angeles area. We ship exclusively by UPS and Greyhound within the USA. PLEASE ALLOW time for items to packed. Larger items that require special packaging may take a little longer. Unlike many ebay sellers, we do not just loosely toss your items in a used old “soft” box and send it on its way destined to be damaged. We take GREAT CARE and expense in both money and time in packing your piece. We use 99% new materials (all produced from recycled sources) and pack the right way every time (it’s not at all uncommon for a small furniture piece to take us 2+ hours to pack). We try and keep “in stock” a full assortment of shipping supplies, but sometimes certain size boxes etc. need to be ordered. We kindly ask that you please allow us a little time for this. In return, we assure you it will arrive safe and secure ready for your enjoyment.
THE REST
We sell VINTAGE items, thus they are USED and should be expected as such. If you’re seeking zero wear, age or patina, we would suggest you buy “new”. Any great extremes in condition will be noted in the items description. Items are described as accurately as possible. Please ask questions BEFORE you bid. We reserve the right to retract any bids deemed questionable.
Special note on vintage electrical items
ANYTHING that plugs in or runs on batteries are sold as design objects for decorative value only and while the current working condition will be noted in the items description, there is no warranty or guarantee on these items due to the fact that they are just that…vintage. Again, ALL SALES ARE FINAL, so please ask questions BEFORE bidding.
Special note on lamps and lighting
Vintage lamps and light fixtures have old wires and sockets. While more often then not, they are safe to use, it is always recommended that you have them checked by a qualified lighting technician prior to using and then have rewired if deemed necessary. We will not be responsible for any electrical hazards or damage.

OVERSEAS BIDDERS
