I found this the other day at a thrift shop. I know that it's a lamp, or at least it's supposed to be if it actually had all of it's pieces, but it seems to have been stripped naked the poor thing. It's very heavy, solid wood I am guessing. I was drawn to it's cool shape and vintage keyhole. Just reminded me of an old piece of furniture. It has absolutely no markings on it. I have no idea if it will look good when and if I put it all back together and put a shade on it but for $1.00 I had to give it a try. I have even considered trying to take the base and the top screw portion off and using just the "urn-like" portion as a decorative piece...maybe do an antique finish on it in black or ivory.
What would you do with it? Paint it? Keep it in it's current condition? Toss it to the curb? It does have a good crack down the length of it, but nothing is loose or anything and it really isn't super noticeable.
Right now it's actually on top of my kitchen cabinets and it looks like an urn up there from far away.
I want to hear your thoughts!
