Hi everyone, I got this lamp from a garage sale and they said it is a 1940s bronze lamp. It has like a green stone in the basement but I´d like to know more about it, does anyone has an idea about it?

From about the later 40's. They did not use stone on this - it is called slag glass base. The lamp is most probably brass plated at one time. They used bronze but not in these type of lamps very much.
It kind of looks like the stabilizing rod is sticking up over the shade meaning a part may be missing.
I agree with Phil. The one we had back in the 50's the base also lit up by pushing a push button switch on the base. It was kind of a floor level night light for when the other lights in the room were off.
