Atomic style chrome globe lamp?

Posted 12 years ago

Found this gem today. Husband fell in love with it but we do not know much about it. The light bulb is completely in silver, not half like I have seen other bulbs. Old ”Gilbert - New York City, made in USA” dial on/off and cord. Any info would be
great

Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.

Look up Gilbert Rohde....He was one of the pioneers of American modern designs. He used a lot of metals and his designs for the most part are stunning.

If this is actually one his lamps.....well it worth pretty penny.

Either way it's a great lamp

The "Gilbert" name was on the cord, not on the lamp. Perhaps the name of the company who made the cord? No markings on the lamp at all :( I looked at his stuff and I do not think this is his. Though, thank you for the information!
