Antique Questions Forum / Help identifying dresser lamp
« on: October 25, 2010, 05:08:59 am »
HI
My parents were married in 1940 and received a pair of dresser lamps either then or in 1946 when they set up housekeeping in their own house. I never saw these lamps with anything but a cheap paper shade but i suspect at some point they had either fringed shades or possibly even glass shades.
If anyone can help, I would like to know who made these lamps, when, and what kind of shades are correct or what would be satisfactory. I would like to buy matching shades but don't want a substitue if the correct ones can be identified and hopefully found.
I will try to insert an image but I can also send one to a direct email if this does not work out. (My first post, sorry for any technical errors.)
