Lamp takes a single candelabra bulb, hidden behind the center clamshell in the photos. The large shell is a beautifully colored abalone, serving as a stunning backdrop for a deranged Floridians twist on a classical Biblical scene; The chromed crucifix is flanked by a pink flamingo and a Florida palm. All the figures, paint and shells are original to the piece. No makers mark or branding of any kind is visible anywhere. The cord is not split or frayed, plug is surprisingly a three way, original as well.
