      The lamp is a plain utilitarian table lamp that has an insert collar that dates it after 1911. In other words, a little non-fancy workhorse that provided lighting to many family get-togethers, homework at the kitchen table and a central source of comfort during the drab depression days. It has no special name but "friend" would be an appropriate name. Bob
