Micaela are there any markings on the lamp at all?

I sure would like to shopping with you some time!  You come up with really neat finds!

Beautiful lamp ...... but the shade is upside down.

I hope it can be taken off and put right-side up.

Micaela, if you were here in the US near me I would come right over and get that lamp!  I'd bring some baked goodies/treats and have a wonderful time looking at all your treasures as well!

Is the elongated globe in the stand made of metal?, porcelain?

What language is on the map?

Can you please post pictures of the electrical plug, the lamp without the shade on it, and underside of base?  Thank you.

It looks like it might be an ancient map of Scandinavia.
