Track lighting was invented by Lightolier and with the help of Gerald Thurston, they created the tension pole lamp with track turned vertical! This particular lamp includes a glass cone shade adjustable task lamp and a large metal saucer reflector shade lamp at the top. They connect to the track by a lever just like the ceiling version. At the time, you could purchase different variations of lighting, a table surface and even a plant holder that would attach to the track. A very hard to find piece of MCM lighting. The lamp works easily with an 8’ ceiling. No manufacturers labels present. See less
