Is that a handle on the right side about a quarter of the way down?

The handle is used to set the telescoping portion at the right height. It has about 2 to 2.5 feet of ability to telescope the upper lamp part.

Thanks kysfinest. That is almost exactly the same! Now to find a piece that goes with it.

Lamp on top

The top is more of a cup - with a flat bottom. It's large enough for a large candle or a small plant.

Thanks all for the info!

Hello All

Can anyone tell me what this type of table is called? I don't know much about it other than I think it was bought in France in the 50s or 60s by a great aunt.
