While the original paper label is no longer present, the lamp’s distinctive form, quality construction, and signature materials — including a white slag glass half-dome shade and stepped black base — are consistent with known Globe Specialty pieces from the era.

A noteworthy design feature is the lamp’s offset base and forward-leaning chrome rod, which may have been intentionally crafted to position the light closer to a wall — a smart and stylish solution for desks, nightstands, or accent tables where space is at a premium.


The lamp retains its polished chrome stem and original socket, standing approximately 10.5 inches tall with a 4-inch wide base. The bold contrast of black and white offers timeless appeal, making this lamp a perfect fit for vintage, Art Deco, or industrial-inspired interiors. See less
