    image.jpeg Hi all, trying to get picture thing down, hopefully will work. Not sure if this lamp is newer or older?

    Hi,
    Reminds of the 1950s.

    Looks like a c.1950s kitschy TV lamp with possibly a small planter on each side for your plastic fern. :cool::cool::cool:

    Yep.... 50s. You need a Venetian blind shade for it (or something equally kitschy). Like this......

    Also found this. Not sure which would be original. Might even have come both ways.

    .... and another. This one doesn't look quite right to me but it might just be due to the angle of the photo looking down on it a bit.

    I don't think the beige one is at all correct. It's 40s maybe...50s for sure but southwestern style.
