Coffin Lamp 1932
Antique casket light with case. This rare funeral lamp is framed with a fine dusty rose linen fabric shade. Few tears, considering age is in great shape. Likely had a transformer for home funerals, now gone. I plugged it into 110 volts and it worked, though NOT recommended. This unusual light has the most amazing dimmer switch which operates via the pull chain. Made by Belden and patent dated 1932.
Hard case in nice condition as well. The latches state Eagle Lock Company Terryville Connecticut. Shown displayed with a wicker casket and volunteer, both sold separately. Just like Barbie, only a bit more Macabre.
