Vintage Mission Style Stained Glass Table Lamp Phelps Dodge Red Brass 1950s (Damage)
■ Item Description
Authentic Vintage Mid-Century Mission Style / Arts & Crafts Stained Glass Table Lamp
This is a stunning, heavy-duty vintage table lamp from the 1950s-1960s, featuring high-quality American-made industrial components. The geometric pyramid shade showcases beautiful amber, green, and cream slag art glass, reminiscent of Frank Lloyd Wright design.
The stem is made of a rare and desirable Phelps Dodge RED BRASS 85-SPS-R (Made in USA) industrial pipe, mounted on a beautifully turned tiered wooden base. The lamp retains all of its period-correct original hardware, making it a perfect piece for collectors of industrial Americana or Arts & Crafts decor.
A Note on the Beautiful Condition:
When this piece was discovered, the brass was heavily blackened and tarnished with decades of grime. It has been gently and meticulously cleaned and lightly polished. This process removed the dirty residue to reveal the gorgeous, warm golden hue of the iconic Phelps Dodge red brass, while carefully preserving its authentic vintage character and natural aged patina. The historic markings are now crisp and clearly legible.
