Louis Runge, Berlin

Here an other American lamp

I know nothing about her.

Sold in Germany, Berlin.

Perhaps knows Neil more about this brand

Replacement shade from Fred Kuntz

 

Why do you think this is American? Lois Runge GmbH Berlin patented this lantern in December 1923 pat No DE400248. As far as I know this is a German lamp. ::Neil::

PS I have just uploaded the patent into the reference section. ::Neil::

 

The reason why I think it's an American lamp,

it looks like an American lamp.

Ok it is a clone from several American lamps, incl. the shade.

Thank you for your help.

 

Yes it is certainly a copy of an American style lamp but the patent probably means they were made in Germany. Interesting lamps. I have seen one other which is in Chicago USA but I expect there will be a few more survivors out there to be discovered yet. ::Neil::

 

Hi Karli and Neil,

I believe also Erik Leger has a Runge lantern, here displayed on Terry Marsh web site.
