I've always wanted a "Heifetz style" or "Frederick Weinberg style' sculptural lamp.
Though not marked, the base alone is like 13 x 9.....it's huge!
Though I like the shade, I think I'm going to update it with a simpler coffee or dark gray silk shade?
It is SO cool!

I love this lamp! And oddly enough it's by MOE Lighting, famous for their wonderful 'honeycomb' pulldown lamps. Who knew they made floor lamps? I'm guessing this is mid-fifties, so it would predate the later famous fixtures.
(I'm now cutting myself off....no more floor lamps!) :)
More kitchen remodel. Turquoise laminate, not so easy to find these days. Cabinets are a stained solid alder.
