    Hi All,

    Can anyone help me identify the origin of this lamp base?

    Bought at auction in UK, it appears to be made of brass and has a crown and 4 digits on base.

    Struggling to find any info on it.

    Many thanks 20240504_142719.jpg 20240504_142423_remastered.jpg

    $1440 by looks of it.

    Not sold though, so may be a bit optimistic

    It has same crown makers mark but doesn't state who maker is either on their listing.

    From a Ritz Carleton in the 70's-odd provenance.

    Thanks, what makes you think it comes from a Ritz Carleton hotel?

    It's in the original Chairish listing that Bulldogs copied-
    'Unique teal blue and brass ginger jar, pineapple or feather pattern table lamp, rescued years ago from a local Ritz Carlton remodel circa 1970s'
