TIFFANY STUDIOS NEW YORK GOLD DORE LINENFOLD DESK LAMP. The base is 12" high and has 2 arms starting at the top where they form a handle.

The platform shows a simple two layer form, slightly rounded at the top. In the pinched top of the base is a small sphere, which is fixed by two knurled screws. From this sphere hangs a bell-shaped casing, which holds the single socket that lights up this lamp. At the base of the socket is a 2 ¼" fitter where the shade is set by 3 small fitter screws. The 9 sided dore shade frames 9 green linenfold panels with a smaller panel above and below. The base is signed Tiffany Studios New York, 418 on the bottom plate and the shade is signed on a tag, Tiffany Studios New York.
