Title: Help identifying dresser lamp
Post by: barrytrains on October 25, 2010, 05:08:59 AM

HI

My parents were married in 1940 and received a pair of dresser lamps either then or in 1946 when they set up housekeeping in their own house.  I never saw these lamps with anything but a cheap paper shade but i suspect at some point they had either fringed shades or possibly even glass shades.

If anyone can help, I would like to know who made these lamps, when, and what kind of shades are correct or what would be satisfactory.  I would like to buy matching shades but don't want a substitue if the correct ones can be identified and hopefully found.

I will try to insert an image but I can also send one to a direct email if this does not work out.  (My first post, sorry for any technical errors.)

Thanks in advance for any help.
