The Ion - New York Edition is inspired by lamps Thomas Edison used to test the first light bulb. We paired its glazed porcelain body and cast iron base with an exposed Marconi bulb for a candle-like, diffused light that warms intimate spaces. Comes with a twisted black cord, Bakelite plug, and cork base pad. Manufactured in our Portland, Ore. factory to exacting specifications. A Schoolhouse Original.
