This is a wonderful ships wheel table lamp The wood has minor scuffs. The shade has some wear and the rope outlining is starting to deteriorate and sheds when you touch it. But still with all that it still looks great! It is 19.5T to the top of the shade & 14T to the top of the bulb socket. Almost all the items I sell are either vintage or antique and have seen decades of use. With that in mind, please expect a baseline of wear & possibly soiling.
