Japanese inspired 40's lamps??

Found these lamps at an antique store that was closing down. Got them for almost nothing, I have seen this style before, but haven't found anything to identify them. One has the original cord,which I wouldn't plug in, but my hubby did, and it worked, the other lamp has a newer plug, and it works also. If anyone can shed some light on thesse lamps, I would appreciate it!
We like the lamps, but they just don't fit into our type of retro decor.
