Hi everyone!

Thanks in advance for your help!

My first reaction was ... John Deacons Monart-style mushroom lamp.

Mine was "something new" emulating a Monart Mushroom.
But I wasn't thinking Deacons.  ??? Even if the shade is exactly the right shape.  ;)

No, but somebody could have found the fittings and made something to replace the original.
The colours and lack of a more defined pattern worry me. I was thinking it was a bit Makora-ish - but less sophisticated.
They're not the most inspiring of colours to look at - but are nice for a lamp - they should give a warm light.
