Signed by famous maker, "Emeralite, Pat. Aug. 15, 1916, NY, USA," this marvelous "banker's" desk lamp has an original emerald green glass shade. Another patent on the arm is 1917.
To reflect light down onto paperwork, the interior of the blown shade was cased with a layer of opal white glass, the bottom edge was then ground and polished. The shade has a few scratches, see photos.
An embossed brass weighted base has just enough wear for a little antique patina and adjusts top and bottom of the shaft. The original standard base socket with pull chain switch has been rewired for safety.
The shade is 9" across, height of this nostalgic antique desk or piano light is 13" overall.
