[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 9787918, member: 84"]This is another thrift store find from my friend's shop. But I haven't bought it yet (i asked a worker to keep it in back where I found it for 1 day till i checked with you guys), because an image searched turned up nothing with the kind of counter weight mine has. Maybe it's the terrible paint job? (You can see between counter weights & inside lamp shade it was previously yellow - and a darker yellow than what comes to mind when you think "yellow"!) Has anyone seen a lamp with this type of counter weight? What is it called? (I saw machinist and tensor lamps during image search) How old is it? (I thought 70's because of the original yellow paint) Finally - would you buy it/should I buy it?
