Rare Vintage MAJESTIC LAMP Fiberglass Shade Atomic Era Mid Century Modern MCM
Item: For your consideration we are presenting for sale a seldom seen Majestic table lamp with its accompanying fiberglass shade. The lamp has a very atomic feel to it! The base of the lamp consists of three ebonized wooden boomerang-shaped accent pieces that are connected in the center. Each of these wooden pieces culminates at a brass ring at the top, and a brass ring at the bottom – so, there are six in total (see photos). The lamp comes with it’s original wooden ball pull chain which is used to turn the lamp on/off. The fiberglass shade is a reddish color, and it has random black and silver painted designs on the exterior surface (again, see photos). It’s a great and unusual lamp for any collector of lighting! With the shade attached, the lamp stands approx. 33.5 tall (measured from the resting surface to the top of the shade). The distance from the resting surface to the light socket is approx. The distance from the bottom of the lower brass rings to the top of the upper brass rings is approx. Each of the brass rings measures approx. 3.5 in diameter. The fiberglass shade measures approx. 15″ tall, with the diameter at the top measuring 14″, and the diameter at the bottom measuring approx. Condition: The lamp is in very good condition for its age. The wood is free from chips, cracks, breaks, scratches, repairs, etc. The brass components are free from dents, dings, repairs, etc. They have a gentle patina that comes with age, and they still shine nicely. The fiberglass shade has some very faint creases which will come out with a steaming, or it can be left alone – we’re solely mentioning for accuracy – they aren’t bad at all. Aside from that, the shade is free from rips, holes, tears, punctures, burn marks, stains, etc. The electrical wiring appears to be original, and is in good condition – there are no frays, splits, exposed or brittle areas to the wiring. The plug tip has a little white paint on it that can come clean. The lamp is in fully-functioning, working order. We always recommend having a licensed electrician inspect the lamp prior to long-term use, just to be safe.
