Let me tell you what's special about this Acorn floor lamp. First it has really great color and heavy mottling. The shade is in really fabulous condition with very few, if any, hairline cracks. It has never been repaired. The patina is original and stupendous on both the shade and the base. The diameter is 12", not the smaller 10" version, so the base has a double knuckle harp, enabling the shade to swivel. Lastly it's properly signed on both the shade and base. 

If you can use a floor lamp, you can't do better than this example. It's a no excuses, superior example with everything you would want it to be. It's been professionally rewired and has a floor switch that you just step on to turn the lamp on and off. It may be the best example I've ever had!
