    Wanting an opinion as to what this would be. Seems like a it's a lamp but there are no holes for the wiring, center piece is more a clamp but then all the wiring would just be hanging there which wouldn't look very lampish. A brutalist statue? The only marking on it is the sticker on the bottom. it1.jpg it2.jpg it3.jpg it4.jpg it5.jpg it6.jpg it7.jpg it8.jpg it9.jpg Thanks in advance.

    Hourglass. Now, why didn't that word spring to mind?

    Electia sounds like a lamp maker. Here's one of their lamps for sale on Ebay Germany. Gives you some idea of how this could be a lamp. Is/was there a hole in the base for a cord? It looks like Electia also made manual coffee grinders, so maybe hourglasses too.
