Bears all signs of being produced by james powell (whitefriars), but a firm attribution has, for years, eluded the finest minds of british glass research.

mounted on a later solid brass gallery, and completed with a british-made solid brass b22 lamp holder and a generous length of premium italian 3-core double insulated cable with a decorative mottled grey linen braid, in-keeping with the period of the shade. Clean and ready to install.

the lamp accepts a single b22 bulb. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no

however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
