    Hi.
    Long time since last posting. I have had this very large lamp for quite awhile now. Auction purchase. Earthenware in construction. 29” tall with 2 inset fixed thick glass lenses. The overall effect is like a stalagmite with a couple of huge diamonds set in.
    No makers mark, possibly a shop display, I don’t know. Looks great when illuminated from the inside.
    Your thoughts appreciated.

      The style is what they call Brutalist. Would love to see what it looks like in situ. Kind of reminds me of a star trek rock.

      Hi.
      Thanks for the info. Yes, Star Trek rock indeed, but this one would not move !

      Nice. An image of the bottom, socket, etc., would be nice, too. It might be a student piece from an MFA program, or a studio piece.

      Hi kwqd.
      The base is hollow. No socket either. I made a wooden base to the same shape and attached a light socket to that.
      If I can locate it, I will take a photo of the piece lit up.

      Thanks Sean68.
      Yes, but I have searched and searched and found no comparable light.
      The maker still eludes me.
