Need more info. That base doesn't even look like it can hold it up. The base is solid and the arm is hollow, the shade lightweight, I guess? There are no markings on it, anywhere? Is the plug polarized? It's hard to tell from the photos, is the shade round and centered or oval and off centered as the photos appear? Is it incandescent or flourescent?

The shade is thin and light(sheet metal almost), the arm is hollow. Incandescent. The only markings are the UL approved sticker inside the shade.
The plug is not polarized. The shade is oval and off center just like it looks in the photos.
The base has some brown felt/ felt type material on the underside.
I completely spaced on getting photos of the plug, its an older brown cord with a thin non-polarized end.
Not shown in the photo is the twist switch under the shade to turn it on/off.

How about "Mid-Century Modern"? Google it for examples.

Yeah, that's a good generic description and my first choice. I was more inclined to find the actual lamp, but that would be like finding a needle in a haystack at this point. Make sure you add the word chrome to that description. Google- https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&...w=1067&bih=604

Looks identical except for the shade color. Cool!
