I purchased two identical lamps at an antique shop here in Toronto, Canada. In doing some research online, I have not found one like it. Curious as to when it might have been made and the company/person who may have designed or made it. Any help would be appreciated.
Description:
Chrome table or floor lamp
3 flexible goose neck arms
stands 3 feet tall when the arms are extended
3 light Settings
vintage wiring
tulip like base?
1960's atomic?
Thank you for looking. I look forward to received your response.
Kind regards,
Joanna

I have had some lamps that were similar though not identical. I think a number of them must have been made in Canada. There were so many furniture and lamp companies in Toronto area esp. from the 20's-6o's, and after that they dropped from sight. Too bad, I had some wonderful lamps and a number of chrome ones I only saw a couple examples and so many variations. So much information on most of the items produced has disappeared !~Phil.
Thank you Phil, your comments are much appreciated. Joanna
