My small collection of Parker label items. Looking for pin cushion stool, Bruce do you have that one?

Bruce, you may be correct about the finishing of lamps at Parkers, as opposed to B&H. Parker didn't acquire B&H until the '40s, but there was a long association between the companies.
Dean, I also have a Rayo lamp, which was one of B&H's named for their different line of lamps. Actually, I have a Rayo, Parker, and 2 B&H lamps. They are so close in detail it's amazing.

The Charles Parker Company did in fact have a clock factory building. It was located on Hanover St in West Meriden. Sadly the building is now gone.
