I know my father found this lamp at a flea market about 20 years ago. It is marked with GIM 1225 on under base of lamp. I believe it to be pewter or silver, or both. Not sure, I am very curious about this and if anyone has seen anything like it. It is very heavy and I can see lamsphade was hand made, hand soldered, Its a very cool piece. I would love to know who made it or where it comes from , anything, thanks. kevin. Measurements are 36 inches high and 15 inches wide at the shade. it weighs 19 lbs. thanks for looking
I'm sorry I don't know a thing but this is very cool!

We have one just like this except ours has 5 bulbs, GIM 536 and has different hues of blue grapes.
This is the exact one we have in the article below.
