Hello all, I purchased a lamp at a local thift store and came to the realization that someone had turned an old stein into a lamp. The plug was bakelite, and the base and finial were hand turned wood, so I believe that it was turned into a lamp in the 30's or 40's. I have looked at many databases to identify it, but to no avail. On the bottom, it is marked with "Germany," "11090," and some type of mark. The number 1090 is also stamped on the side of the body. I have included a couple photos. It measures 12" tall by 5.25" at the base.

Thank you, Tom
