Oh sweet -- I remember homes having these lamps in them. Very Popular in the 1950 / 1960's era. Looks like the wood might be Walnut ??. These are very collectible these days -- Nice find!!
Did you look on the bottom ( or under the felt) or the metal sockets for any marks. should be something somewhere...
Thanks antiquerose. Yes, I think the wood is walnut. I hadn't thought to look under the felt and at the metal sockets. Thanks!
These floor to ceiling type lamps were popular in the later sixties and seventies. Some may be earlier. I love the boomerang shape of the wood which was popular with some of the atomic lamp companies.
