<p>[QUOTE="Drew, post: 10246152, member: 3235"]I don't think it's a marriage - base and alloy outer portion fit together too well with the 5 sockets lined up. I've seen those sockets before . . . a European lamp possibly. I'd look for any markings on the base and or sockets (voltage labeling should be present). That plug could be as old as the 20s -30's but they made them for many decades. The cord & switch look to be 40s to 70s commercial looking appliance use type. At any rate, a neat modernist piece . . . install bulbs and enjoy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
