Description This is a very unusual lamp. It is a ceramic Monkey sitting on a tree stump. He is wearing white and red striped pants with a lime green and red jacket. His arms are gray and he is holding a big bunch of yellow and lime green bananas on his head. The face is not furry but human-like. The lamp fixture is attached to the top of his head and it has two bulbs (horizontal) I think the lamp part is probably brass or brass plated. He is approx. 30" from base to top and has no shade. The cord is old but it works perfectly. He is the most unique lamp I've ever seen!
