[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 261537, member: 51"]Would love a few eyes more eyes on this. Lidded pottery jar has been turned into a lamp. The plug looks older to me (1950's?) so probably assembled 60+ years ago. Jar measures approx 9 inches, not including socket or base. Bottom has spots where the glaze did not cover (not chips). We took it apart to get a look at the bottom of the jar, nothing written on the pottery jar. Although that base piece has a sticker, I think it only refers to the base, not the make of the lamp or anything. One thing I noted, the clay on this is fairly coarse to the touch. Older Chinese jar? Other thoughts? Thanks!
