[Product Description]
An early 20th century American-made Benjamin socket, stamped with a patent date of May 17, 1904.
With a robust construction combining a porcelain body with brass parts, this was a professional lighting component used in factories, train stations, theaters, and photography studios of the time.
It features a structure that can branch two lights from a single socket, and the stamping clearly shows "660W / 250V" and "PATD. 5-17-04," indicating a clear date and specifications. The internal distribution block and thick porcelain molding give it a powerful presence unique to industrial products, unlike modern mass-produced items.
Ideal for industrial, Brooklyn, and factory-style interior designs, this piece creates a very atmospheric display when combined with Edison bulbs.
It is a rare antique item that boasts a high level of perfection not only as a lighting part but also as an objet d'art.
Please understand that this is a vintage item and examine the images before purchasing.
