Ariston is a brand name of the Italian Indesit group for electric parts, heating, refrigeration etc.

The base please, the underside view suggests 1950s/60s as does the type of metal used but the full view does not show enough.

Here are close up pix of the top & bottom of the shade. Lamp base close ups next post.

95% Italian pewter - no relation to walsh wash at all. Lampshade most likely made in Empoli.

Probably 1960s but could be 70s too
