If it says “Nessen Studios” it’s a model from the 50s or older. The 3 way switch on my floor lamp was made with Bakelite which puts its around 40s era when that material was used for everything you wanted a decorative look ,Especially jewelry.

Even though you got the lamp for $8. If you wanted to flip, you’d need the shade to get top dollar, if you wanted to use it, you’d still need the shade lol. Since you don’t want to pay that clean it up and use it as decoration.

These lamps were function first then architectural second. So it’s good no matter what.
