This does have it's orignal plug with its old bevelled edges on the power point pins
All lamps should be checked by an electrician before use
There is a chip on the stem on top of the chrome, luckily the bakelite twisted and turned to the back so it is not visible or distracting
The chrome stem has an aged patina that I have left as is, it shows it's authenticity
The shade has some weight to it, with a very warm glow when lite at night
& that base with the wonderful caramel swirls, and beveled feet.
It is a wonderful piece & would make a lovely addition to your home.
Thanks again.
