We have a similarly made lamp on the Arnolt...it is made by Marchal of 
France.  They are hard to find and expensive becasue they were used on 
Ferrari's and Maser's.  Some folks has successfully pried the folded over 
metal up enough so that the glass can be removed and the reflector 
re-silvered, the the glass is crimped back into place.  Not a job for the 
faint hearted!!!  But worth saving a rare item.  You might try swishing 
"Tarnx" silver rrestoring solutin on the reflector and give it the dishwasher 
treatment per McCarney....
Good luck
Terry
