    Mid century green glass lamp. I do not know how to tell who the maker is or if this is actually a collectorable lamp. How do I find out if is a Falkenstein lamp? It reminds me of ET! Fun lamp and I cannot find, not one, like this!

      It does not resemble falkenstein lamps at all really. These were of the period of late 1967 to about the early 1980's. I love the bottom light which often had a wire mesh diffuser over the bulb. There were thousands of these made by so many companies and over 95% were unmarked and led to many companies stealing designs. My father had several, back years ago in 1990's when many were left in the alleys to be picked up by people or gone into the trash. I have several collections of many of these type and other than that the best place to look is on ebay.

      Usually had 3 light switch positions and this one is meant to look like a coal oil lamp with a clear glass chimney piece over the bulb and comes over your green top piece.
