This is a beautifully restored vintage brass fire extinguisher that has been converted into a table lamp. The brass has been polished to a high shine and lacquered over to keep it that way. There is a hazed portion on the backside where the label once was. You can almost make out what was on the original label. There is an embossed metal label on the bottom back that reads "Underwriters' Laboratories, Inc. Inspected Hand Fire Extinguisher Classification A-2 No. E 666896". The extinguisher sits on a black painted metal base. The lamp has all new wiring and has a new custom lampshade. It is 29.5" to the top of the bulb socket. I have a second similar table lamp on another listing. That one has the hose on the opposite side.
