1920’s antique Faries cast iron gooseneck desk or table lamp. Engraved on the end of the brass gooseneck is “Faries Mfg Co”. Inscribed on the brass shade connector is “Faries, Pat 1184906”. Lamp base and shade have been repainted in oil rubbed bronze with an overspray of dark bronze. The original brass patina of the gooseneck, socket shell and brass shade connector has been retained. Brass shade connector is unique as it slides over the socket shell, connecting the shade to the socket. Lamp shade has a few minor dimples though not readily noticeable. Lamp has new wiring although the original brass socket shell has been retained. Lamp measures 15-1/2" tall; base 7-1/2” deep and 5-1/4” wide; shade 6-3/4” in diameter. A 40-watt equivalent LED standard base light bulb is included and recommended to prevent the shade from getting too hot.
