Antique/Retro hanging wall-lamp

I recently did my first lamp repair for a customer in the neighborhood.  He had an old lamp he had picked up at a garage sale, but had a bunch of rust on it, and a totally worn out cord.  It's an antique hanging lamp, intended to be hung on the wall, with an adjustable cord and counter-weight.  Pretty cool design, and a great fit for his place, but it really needed an overhaul.

So, I removed most of the rust from the metal parts... polished the brass pipes and re-painted the off-white pieces and the counter weight.  I replaced the cord with a great antique-style rayon-wrapped cord.  It's not quite as thick as the original, but it will do the trick.  Ended up having to replace the switch as well, which involved a bunch of dismantling of the light-socket assembly, and some soldering to get it back together.  But it all works, and looks great!

Here are some pics of what it looked like before the repairs:
