This 1920s Spanish Revival bridge floor lamp was produced by the Wellington Stone Co. and remains in its original condition. It features a heavy cast iron base (12" x 9") that retains its original polychrome painted finish. The twisted brass pole also carries its original finish and is topped with an ornate filigree bridge arm depicting a dragon motif. A notable feature is the original uranium glass break situated in the center of the brass pole, which reacts under a UV light with a bright green glow. The lamp has been re-wired with a period-appropriate, cloth-covered cord. Finding a lighting piece from this era completely intact with its original structural elements and finishes is uncommon.
The Wellington Stone Co. was an American manufacturer operating during the early 20th century, specializing in cast iron home decor and interior lighting. Based in Chicago, the firm held multiple design patents dating to August 1924 for their weighted bases and metalwork assemblies. Their lamps are characterized by distinct manufacturer stamps on the underside of the base and are collected today for their heavy construction, clean casting detail, and classic period styling.
