Hi Douglas. Thanks for your comment. Hope the explanation was for any use. This lamp throw soft and gentle light depending of the type of bulp you are using. Sandra

Fantastic, I actually have seen these lamps here in the States! If not mistaken, I've seen it used with candles, oil, gas, and electricity! It provides a soft ambiance with a completely uniform symmetrical lighting distribution. Some of the prices range from $700 to $3,000 and are now more design than function, with the advent of the GE soft white light bulb and floresent bulbs! Thanks for the history and explanation of your image "PH 5 lamp"! Hugs, and Bravo!
