Featured in this lot is this turned wooden Monowatt lamp with shade circa 1960's. The lamp is wonderfully and professionally crafted turned wooden construction that features a turned wooden base and a wool covered cord. The lamp shade features a 1960's style decoration with a large circular construction. From the estate collection of Lloyd Kent and Phyllis DeVore passed owners of the historic DeVore’s Saddlery Helena, Montana. Helena Saddlery of Helena, MONT. Was founded in 1890 and was the predecessor to DeVore Saddlery. Upon Lloyd Kent DeVore’s (also referred to as L. Kent) college graduation he purchased his father Lloyd’s business, the Helena Saddlery and Tent on Lawrence Street, and renamed it DeVore’s Saddlery in circa 1950. Kent learned his craft from some local greats such as Jack Miller and George Hargrave who also worked for DeVore’s. Both L. Kent and his bride Phyllis have since passed away and these pieces are being offered by the family estate. The condition of this lamp is good and has been tested to work and shows good overall condition. The measurements of this lamp are 22" x 16 1/4" x 16 1/4".
