    I have this pair of lamps. I don't know anything about them except they were my great grandmas and had been in my grandparents garage since she passed. I'm unable to find any markings on them and they seem to be missing a globe or hurricane top? Any information would be greatly appreciated!

      They look like just before mid century when there were so many lamps coming into production. Possibly 1960's which the cord alone looks like.

      The prisms also look to be the newer ones which can be found easily. A lot of the mid century 60's to 70's had similar prisms to their lamps.

      Do you think they might have had a metal base on them at one time?? Can you tell if you look at them? Just wondering as for something like this?

      Maybe they are Boudair Lamps ( bedroom )
      ??

      I don't think they had a metal base. Everything comes apart and I cleaned very thoroughly, that's why the prisms look new. Had you seen them before I cleaned, you'd see they are definitely original to the lamps! The cord definitely dates them, and I do believe they're budoir lamps but that's all I've been able to figure out about them. I certainly do appreciate the input! Any help is better than none!
