<p>[QUOTE="Fern77, post: 4215697, member: 16131"]Your rather nice lamp is probably older than the 1930s, but could be as new as the late 1940s. (during that period nouveau met deco while also remembering a&c/gothic revival). There was most likely a brass chain intertwined with the electrical cords holding the individual lamps that somehow got lost during the rewiring when the plastic bits came in. The glass globes are themselves not rare or valuable so feel free to experiment. The central one usually was bigger and a little more interesting, so if it doesn't work, the replacement doesn't have to be the same.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
