I already posted about this in the Vintage wish list, and I don't want to be obnoxious and repeat myself but I will. I apologise in advance if I am breaking a rule.
Hi Fellow Vintage Lovers,
I have a cut crystal lamp with a cut crystal shade that rests on a tripod type of shade holder.
Unfortunately, some one broke one of the arms off at a show, and I need to find a replacement tripod. I cannot find the original arm to have it soldered, as another arm was, so I would like to find a complete one.
I have added some pictures for you to view. Any and all help in hunting down this piece would be greatly appreciated.
The center hole is approximately ½ inch in diameter and the ring is about ¾ of an inch in diameter
The one good arm is about 4 1/16 inches long.
The cut glass lamp shade is about 8 1/8th inches in diameter.
You can see some of the shade in the second to last picture.
Thanks
Granny Wicker (aka Mark)

Ok... here are some that are a bit more decorative http://www.rcchre.com/CatPages/ADL/Hardware/H269_1A.html
...and here are some without the rings http://www.haroldrandenterprises.com/CatPages/ADL/Hardware/H270_10....
