This Mid Century Industrial style metal desk lamp is steel with a bronze colored finish. It has an adjustable floating head fixture and swivels to just about any position you need. It takes two 17 inch T8 tube bulbs.
The sturdy round base is 7-1/2 inches diameter. It doesn't take up a lot of desk or table space but it's quite heavy and will not tip over. The shade is 18-1/2 by 5-1/2", and the height is a little over 16 inches to the top of the shade when the brass tube neck is straight and the shade is level. The 5-1/2 foot brown cord has no damage or brittleness. The Bakelite plug is the old fashioned non-polarized type. The lamp has no markings that would identify the maker. The lamp lights up well, but it will only come with one bulb. I broke one while trying to look at the shade interior for any marks.
