    Was bought at a flea market as my wife thought it needed a new home. Did not come with a shade and I replaced the rusted bulb holder. Any thoughts on age or any other info?

    I kinda like it. Would look nice in the right setting. I assume it's all glass?

    Thinking that this dates this around 1960s/70s.

    This sort of thing sells in antique markets any day all day. I'd throw a cream-colored drum shade on it and call it the bargain of the week.

    Yep, all glass and was cheap. I was guessing 60's by the plug and the bulb socket I replaced. Its like a scraggly dog you bring home because you feel sorry for it.
