Vintage Von Nessen Light Adjustable Brass Metal Desk Table Lamp Clamp-On Patents

Description: This spectacular brass executive desk lamp has a rectangular domed metal shade and swing-arm adjustability. It is thought to be an original Walter Von Nessen lamp by way of the patent numbers stamped on the back of the brass arm joint and his signature swing-arm design. It takes two fluorescent tube bulbs, has on/off switch under the shade, and is quite heavy. It is in non-working condition, and may need a fuse or ballast repair. This beautiful clamp-on desk or table lamp was found in an old farmhouse slated for demolition and was said to at one time have been a funeral home. See more Vintage Lamps & Lighting here!

There are no dents or dings in the shade, but aged, mottled patina, with light scuffs and scratches. The white enamel underside of shade is brown-stained and dirty. The lamp does not work when plugged in and turned on--it may need a fuse (appears to be one fuse missing), or maybe ballast repair, or perhaps even new bulbs.
