    Just came across this task light. I know the socket is a replacement but have never seen this before. I am going to restore it but do not have any name or age. I want to restore it correctly. Any help would be great!

      Hmm, that might have potential. So, that ring on the left is the mount. And all three rings articulate? I would trash the cheap socket, add a small enamel shade, then secure a paddle porcelain socket. Wire it up with cloth wiring. Done. Although, for a more secure base, use a small floor lamp base or go major industrial and use a small motorcycle disc brake!
