The lamp features multiple pivot points for directional positioning, exposed friction hardware, and a compact machine-style shade fitted for a bayonet-style bulb. Its streamlined utilitarian form reflects the practical engineering common to early American factory and workshop lighting, where durability and adjustability were prioritized over ornamentation.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe elongated arm and compact shade design made lamps of this type well suited for machining stations, drafting tables, assembly lines, and industrial bench work requiring concentrated task lighting. The muted enamel finish and exposed mechanical joints give the piece a distinctly machine-age appearance tied to Depression-era and prewar industrial production.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nShows scattered paint loss, surface scratches, oxidation, and age-related wear throughout, particularly along pivot joints and arm sections. Lamp adjusts easily and the cord appears to be in good condition. Uses a bayonet-style bulb and was photographed without a bulb installed.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nLamp arm: 26\" L\u003cbr\u003e\nStand: 12\" H\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nMM - C-20506 - 051326\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor information regarding shipping, please visit our Terms \u0026amp; Conditions page \u003ca class=\"GeneratedLink\" href=\"https:\/\/industrialartifacts.net\/pages\/shipping\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Industrial Artifacts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44129070350379,"sku":"C-20506","price":395.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0194\/8170\/files\/8b1778b3-032c-5728-bafe-de0a7ba93863.jpg?v=1779835062","url":"https:\/\/industrialartifacts.net\/products\/vintage-industrial-articulating-task-lamp-by-fostoria","provider":"Industrial Artifacts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
