Hoping someone could give me some info on this lamp. It reminds me of an old plant stand I have looked high and low for a makers mark but cant find anything. Any ideas what these things were called?

Wow, looks amazing! I've seen a few of these, or similar looking...from the looks of it, it looks Victorian made. The style with all the cupids or angels or whatever you want to call them, was quite common in the lamps I've seen, possibly 1890s...not too sure....

Very nice piece. That looks to be a Victorian, circa 1890, kerosene floor lamp. It should have a globe and a chimney to make it complete.

Nice piece. There was an importer here in TX that was bringing in copies of these type items over the years. To verify authenticity....
I would ask that you take a pic of the undersides and tell us if there are any screws - what type of heads are on them.

Hope this helps
