Sometimes the forum software flips images - if i left click on the link and open it with my software, it is vertical - and my software doesn't automatically correct it.

I think rivets are the same on both sides of the pond, and I'm baffled by the "glass is full of rivets" statement.

It looks like your candle lamp base is made from spun brass. If so, I'd guess it dates back to the later half of the 19th century.
