Hadn’t thought of that, but could be!
The holes are where the bulbs screw in!
I can’t decide whether I love or hate this lamp, but I find it interesting. It’s a recent find by a picker friend, and he believes it’s from the...
Thank you! I like this kind of thing, so will likely order a copy.
Thanks! Here’s another bowl that’s smaller and of a different shape, but appears to be made of the same stuff, that they’re calling “root burl”....

Thanks! The one in your second link looks like an especially good match.
This unusual item was an interesting (for me, at least!) find today. It’s basically a copper baby face soldered into a steel plate, with a hook...
$200 Canadian.
