    My daughter had this for over 20 years and never gave it a thought that this would have any value, but when she noticed a name engraved at the bottom she reached out to me since she knows I like investigating items and I have never heard of the name before. Anyone know the history of this and is there another one out there? What is the metal part made of and is the lamp shade original? Any interesting feedback would be nice.

    Thank you in advance,
    Carmen

      All of the Oscar B. Bach floor lamps that I saw, on a google image search, were very collectable, and priced like they were too ^ ^ ^! Good Luck! :^)

      Oh! The lamps were priced up, with or without shades! :^)

      Hi There,

      Thank you for responding to my post. I read about the artist at the website provided. Sounds like he was well known. I sure wish I could see another like this just for the fun of searching and knowing it's exact name. My daughter said it was a heavy metal so I wonder if it was steel or something else.

      Thanks again!

      Hi All, Thank you for all your comments, I've read them and very interesting information on all his work-Wow! Would anyone know the value of this lamp and should she try to clean/shine it? One of you referred me to the "Worthpoint" website and it was the exact one only theirs was looking really clean.
