What a weird lamp!! This lamp is HEAVY. We think it is made of cast iron, possibly steel. It has a gold-silver metallic finish to it. This is NOT MADE OF GOLD!! The word gold can actually be used to describe a color, believe it or not! Will need rewiring as the current wiring is brittle and falling apart!! When the switch clicks, it means the lamp is off, and when the switch is somewhere vertical, the lamp is ON. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY INJURY YOU MAY SUSTAIN WHILE OPERATING THIS LAMP – Not saying that you’ll injure yourself but do BE CAREFUL! It is old and metal.. There is a cutout in the trunk. We are not sure what it’s intended purpose is, but we think it would make a cool planter! No maker’s mark. We have not been able to find another piece like this one anywhere. If you have any information that will improve our ad, please do share as we love to learn! 10.75 inches tall w/ out socket; 13.75 w/ current socket. 8.50 x 6.25 inches at base. 3.00 inch diameter x 3-3/8 inches deep opening in trunk. Weighs 6 pounds, 9 ounces. This lamp came out of Harvey Donegan’s estate in Warren, Arkansas. He was an inveterate collector of all things. Some of his most interesting finds came from the discarded items that proliferate on New York Streets. Harvey crossed paths with many famous and nearly famous individuals in his 6 decades in NY. His letters make frequent mention of Gore Vidal and Andy Warhol. Harvey’s grandparents, the Cokers, built a large hotel in Warren, Arkansas prior to WWI. It is still standing and was the repository for so many items that Harvey collected during his NY years. It is unknown when all his articles were transported from New York to Warren or how they got there, but all items found in the hotel date from the 1970’s or earlier.
