    Hi I was wondering if anyone could help with this item? I'm not sure what it is exactly? Looks like a lamp that goes on a hinge? Would anyone know the era or what it is exactly. Made of some kind of cast iron I believe? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Typically, the top post held a shiny deflector to disperse the light into the room. Can you tell if something has been snapped off from the end with the arrows?

    The real challenge will be to find the part that attaches to the wall.

    These were popular a few years back.....back when I had my shop. The holder were fairly common to find......but the wall bracket not.

    At one time it may have held two lamps and one base has gone missing.

    This is likely the set-up.
