CHuDWah Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 (edited) It looks kinda small for a hood ornament. I'm thinking she may have once had a bowl for candy, a box for cigarettes, etc that fit on the cylinder.

Mark Wetherbee Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 The base she is on has a hole just behind her that looks like a good place for lamp wire. I don’t think it’s got anything to do with a hood ornament… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think it’s got anything to do with a hood ornament… I missed that. The wire on the lamp that keiser posted is hidden except where it goes under the base and into the lamp, presumably the rest runs through the figure. The hole in the OP figure's base looks pretty big for a lamp wire and I can't see any way to hide the wire. I have a lamp like the one below. (It's the silhouette of a pine tree in case you're wondering.) Note the socket in the base for a small candle-flame-shape bulb. There could have been a similar socket in the OP figure's base and a bowl, box, etc in her hands. (it's the silhouette of a pine tree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
