Looks original, possibly hand-made. I would not call it "attractive", though it would fit well in a gothic mansion's decor.

Re: The Spiderman Horn
I am not convinced. It looks like capiz shell, not mica, as used for making lampshades.

I would personally call it very attractive, instead! What a pity that a unit made with glass and plumbing would be way too heavy to stand on the arm!

If you like that... just solder a neck onto this and a crane hanger... voila... (or "walla" or "viola", if you went to public school in the US...)

Viewed from the side, maybe, but if you look from the front, it is missing only the big hairy spider in the middle...Marco Gilardetti wrote:I would personally call it very attractive, instead! What a pity that a unit made with glass and plumbing would be way too heavy to stand on the arm!
It may not be that heavy, if indeed it is mica or other similar material, but as Curt and Epi suggest, it could be a lamp shade, although the neck looks too narrow.
