[QUOTE="bluumz, post: 11079975, member: 649"]Larger photos would be helpful. Also, people prefer full-size photos that show within the body of the post (like mine below) rather than thumbnails. :) Your lamp looks Moroccan- or Turkish-influenced, I admit that I don't know the finer points of those styles. I'm sure someone more knowledgeable than me will chime in. The "Fat Boy" sockets make me think possibly 1920s-40s, but that's just a guess. You could try researching them. A photo of the plug may be helpful. Personally, I think all vintage lamps should be re-wired for safety, if use is intended. Unfortunately, I do think finding a shade will be difficult. It, too, may have been pierced brass. Maybe something like these (with or without fringe): [IMG]https://delapuenteantiques.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/IMG_1074.jpeg[/IMG] [ATTACH=full]536183[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
