c. 1910s-1920s; F. W. Hardy & Co. - Chicago, IL
Rare japanned copper scissor-arm wall lamp with cast iron bracket, brass socket, and ruffled milk glass petticoat shade.
Made by F. W. Hardy & Co. of Chicago-an early 20th-century manufacturer known for patented mechanical fixtures and industrial lighting-this lamp showcases the warm metallic depth of its original japanned copper finish. The accordion-style arm collapses neatly to 21" and extends fully to 66", allowing for maximum reach and versatility in task or shop settings. The articulated socket pivots both up and down, with additional vertical adjustment, providing precision control of light direction. Stamped "F. W. Hardy & Co. Chicago" and "Patent Allowed," the hardware underscores its documented origin and period authenticity.
66" L (fully extended)
Shade: 7" dia
Flush mount: 10" H

The japanned copper surface shows rich, mottled patina from decades of use, creating a striking contrast against the delicate white glass shade. The milk glass petticoat shade, with its frilled edge, remains intact and adds a decorative accent to the lamp's rugged industrial profile. Fully functional, with smooth extension and a standard plug.
