Hi Tony,
I've got no idea, sorry  :cry:

The catalogues show that Hoffmann did some decoration also, but it's difficult to make out how these really looked.

I like to ask you for further pictures, especially of the base and side view, preferably without flash ?

Well done, Tony - now I see that each side is cut (?) into four triangles also.

Shall dive into some more and other books...
