In the 1960s, when details on the space race headlined the cover of every magazine and the Russian's sputnik satellite inspired a whole movement in futuristic home décor, rod and ball construction really had a moment. We've revived the best of that construction and plated it in a modern brass finish so that it simultaneously harkens the past and beckons to the future. Situated atop a clear base, the combination of metal and crystal paired with a cotton drum shade make for a versatile piece that will last for decades to come.- Care Instructions: Before cleaning any lamp shade or fixture, disconnect the power source. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid the use of chemicals and household cleaners as they may damage the finish.- Primary Material: 80% MetalProduct Specifications:- Linear sputnik-inspired base in brass- Classic white drum shade in a hardback cotton material- On-off switch on socket- Takes one maximum 60 watt or equivalent bulb- Beautiful to display or easy to conceal: the 60"" cord is silk-wrapped
