Older Lamp
« on: August 02, 2012, 06:35:02 am »
Hello,


Anyone have any idea on how old this lamp might be? the lamp socket says Leviton, im guessin they made the lamp but I am not sure if the wiring is original or not. On the underside there is a marking 369(or 229) any idea what type of glass the center part is?

Thanks

Your lamp looks like the repros of older styles made in the 60`s !! Newer wiring and fixtures !! This company made a lot of table lamps in various styles !! Just red glass !!

Thank you! I knew it was some sort of reporduction since the switch is just decoration. But had no idea from what decade. I love this lamp. It filters light really nicely through the glass. We bought a 1890s farm house and I found a box of things in the attic. Lots of older kitchen equipment. But those have patent numbers so I found their worth. Since the house is old, I really don't want to decorate it with pottery barn stuff etc. I would like to get as much period pieces that would of fit in the house at the time it was made.
