Unique copper over nickel bohemian Islamic style lamp with hanging hook, styled after Turkish water jug or nautical cargo lamp. Hand stamped mixed metal with partial "United Arab Republic" stamp.
The United Arab Republic (UAR) used various metal marks and stamps on its products, particularly during its existence from 1958 to 1961. "United Arab Republic (U.A.R.), political union of Egypt and Syria proclaimed on February 1, 1958, and ratified in nationwide plebiscites later that month. It ended on September 28, 1961, when Syria, following a military coup, declared itself independent of Egypt."
Height to top of final measures 26 inches, approximately 8 inches at its widest. Cord measures 6 feet. Lamp works as it should.
Comes to you insured from a smoke and pet free home. Shade harp and finial will be removed but included.
"Vintage decor displays the evidence of use and purchaser should not expect a brand new looking piece, but rather one with the sweet patina of time, with wrinkles, erosions, scars, abrasions and flaws. Like our grandmothers."
