A couple of months ago I bought a standard lamp from eBay. Really like the old fella,but after searching for hours, can’t find anything like it.

it has a standard art deco square base, barley twist stalk and these mad knobbly bits at the top.

It would be appreciate if anyone with more knowledge than me could help me out. Is it an a particular sort of lamp, or is it an amalgamation of different things?

It could be home made? Someone trying out all their woodturning skills and styles?
I like it!

Thanks for the replies. Pretty much sure it is Art Deco because of the square base and the barley twist stalk. Although I’ve never seen them done together. The knobbly bits at the top are still a mystery. I think someone trying out different woodworking is excellent shout.
