Hopefully picture will come up. Know it's at least 30 years old. Morracan? Indian? Supposed to send out all kinds of color and light when lit (6 bulbs inside), you hang in a corner. Must be something if you're tripping! Could use all the help I could get on this one, thanks

During the 60's and 70's we had unusual hanging lamps and from the looks of this I think this is one. Something that buyers would buy if they decorated in that years style. Enter hanging lamp in the search in eBay and you will see there are a bunch of them, not like yours but you can get the idea.

I would say something like "Looks like something straight out of Anthropologie!!" to get those Anthropologie store crazed buyers to come and take a look.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. Didn't think about "Weird Stuff" tooltimes, good idea. Like your about Anthropologie also Saffy, we have one down the street and have never been able to figure out how they stay open. Waverly was next door and went bust, now we have Dansk, wonder how long they'll last.
The owner wants $100, told him I don't think he'll get it but I'll try - it's his dime. Apparently he got quite a deal when he bought it - only $400 25+ years ago! Who knows, stranger things have happened on eBay.
My husband wants to wire it up to see what it looks like lit, told him those days for me are loooong gone.

My pleasure~ It's a really nice example..you are right on the mark as far as age goes, these were popular in the 60s-70s. Hope you do well with it!
