Vintage Mid-Century Modern Bullet Cone Tension Pole Floor Lamp

This vintage mid-century modern tension pole floor lamp features three classic bullet cone shades in original red, green, and blue enamel finishes. An iconic lighting design associated with 1950s–1960s modern interiors, it offers both sculptural impact and highly functional, adjustable lighting.

The lamp has been professionally refurbished. The light switch toggles have been replaced, and all three lights are fully functional and working properly. The tension mechanism remains secure and adjustable, allowing the lamp to fit snugly between floor and ceiling.

Measurements (Approximate)
• Adjustable height: approx. 84"–96" (fits standard ceilings)
• Pole diameter: approx. 1"
• Cone shades: approx. 6" diameter each

Condition
Good vintage condition. Fully operational with refurbished switches. There are a few minor, superficial scuffs on the metal cone shades consistent with age and use. One end may benefit from a future rubber tip replacement, though it currently functions well and holds tension securely.

Estimated Value
Comparable vintage mid-century bullet cone tension pole lamps typically sell in the $600–$1,000+ range, depending on condition, originality, and colorway.

Notes
A highly collectible and iconic mid-century lighting piece, ideal for a living room, office, or studio. Works beautifully as both ambient and accent lighting.
