<p>[QUOTE="Bev aka thelmasstuff, post: 36168, member: 23"]Pretty strange lamp. From the holes drilled in the chair - one looks like it would be where a doorknob would go - and the others on the bottom, perhaps there was a figure in the chair? Doesn't the light show through the fretwork? I bet there were colored glass panels inside - notice the projections. A panel would slide up into the holders you see near the top and the things sticking out would hold it. It also looks like before it was rewired, the wire went through that loop at the bottom to retain it close to the lamp.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
