cheers Gary,
im looking to get a fitting made the same idea as it would have had originaly which fits in the neck of this lamp and slightly overhangs the diameter on top (inside neck measures 2 inches,outside 2 and a half inches), flat or domned with fitting on top and one underneath for lighting inside, same kinda of fittings as used on the vase lamps sold by Libertys, this lamp base would have been fitted with parchment shade in matching colours and also lit inside , (acid washed inside lamp base), suppose i could get someone who works in machine shop to turn one for me, i have some double ended lamp fitting with bc fittin on one end and ses on other end i got out a couple of german pottery lamps that were lit inside and on top, so think i should sort something out hopefuly,
