Acquired Dazor work lamp c. 1940s (Dazor Lighting Technology)
a steel task lamp in gray paint with a dual pipe adjustable arm and art deco fluting
I had the ballast replaced to work with modern LED replacement bulbs and the switch upgraded to be able to control each of the two bulbs independently. I also cleaned of decades of grime and polished it up a bit. 

Thrift purchase for $24.98 from Goodwill on 2025-10-02.

Acquired Vintage c. 1940s Fluorescent Desk Lamp (Radionic Trans. Co.)
Material: Steel
Design: art deco, two pedestals with an adjustable lamp head

I love the fact that there are small grooves in the base that seem to be designed to hold a pen or pencil. 

Office set up showing a gray executive tanker desk with blue drawers and writing drawers. In the front is a brown Royal HH standard typewriter with a visually similar vintage brown metal desk lamp with art deco styling behind it. Off to the side is a box for and bottle of Isle of Sky 18 year old whisky with a double old fashioned glass nearby.

Angle down onto a brown desk lamp featuring a metallic art deco decoration. In the base of the lamp is a shallow trough with a fountain pen sitting in it. The bottom of the base has a simple black pushbutton on/off switch.
