This is totally out of my field, but did a tiny bit of research....
As opposed to a desperate message?
The artist is Ida Calzolari...
All of this has been super helpful. Basically wanted to rule out any huge value -- you never know if something is the odd hard-to-find character...
Standard size tumbler, 3-18 embossed on bottom. Not impossible these are newer, condition is unused. Anyone recognize this character?...
The "Milano" on the cord would indicate Italy I think. There are a number of "FMC Milano" cord lamps you can view --different from this one, but...
