Hi artroy, welcome to the Board.

For info on adding pics to the messages, please click this link to our Techir Tip on the subject.

If you still have trouble (many folk struggle at first getting their images down to a Kb size that is acceptable to the Board) please email the pic(s) to me and I will sort them out for you. Use the Email Icon on the left below my username. This option may take a day or two, though!

May be worth googling Krosno Glass , a Polish company who often use the bubble in the base you describe.

There are some image results on this google page and a link to the Krosno website.

That is Krosno all right. They originally usually came with a little wick holder which fits in the top hole and you're supposed to burn lamp oil in them. We se a lot of these - it must have been one of their best selling items.
