    Hi everyone. I was hoping to get some information on this electric lamp. We can't find a mark anywhere. I don't have measurements but the horrible pic with it on a plant stand shows what a beast it is. Thanks you for any help at all.

    I thought so too. But I've seen a few similar ones on another site.

    Looks old and original to me. Doesn't look cobbled together, do all the wire attachments look like they are the same and the same old age?
    If I had to choose a style, I would select: far-pre-HollywoodRegency-trying-to-look-way-more-modern. I do think it's got some age to it.

    Thank you for the help. Yes, all the wiring is the same and probably original. Thanks again.

    Did you take the top piece (including metal) off? It may have had a wick b4. If when converted to electric that would explain the base metal and top metal looking mismatched. All the crystal looks to be the same pattern to me, but I’m no expert on cut crystal. I can say I have seen many oil lamps converted tho. Did you try google lens for a pattern match? Or maybe someone here can point you in the direction of a site for cut crystal patterns. All I know about that would be Replacements.com for designs.

    Thanks for your input. Didn't notice the different metal sections. I'm not with the lamp, but I'll have someone check about a wick. Haven't tried Google lens yet. Thank you for all the great ideas.
