      Very doubtful. For one, these only run off 120 v here in the US, and they are often stepped down to a voltage the filament can handle better. All of the wiring leads to the bulb holder, which is insulated from the rest of it. The glass component she is touching is nonconductive, so literally the only way for her to get shocked is if there is a short to the stand and she bottoms the lamp out.

      I suppose if there is sufficient lubrication, that might increase the chances? Still super unlikely though, and worst case scenario, from there the current can’t cross her heart.
