Thanks, C!
It did turn out pretty cool. I guess that's why it sold so fast.

You're welcome!
Yeah I think so too, have you thought about making more? Or different styles?

I'll likely be doing more "one-offs" in various styles, since it is so challenging to find similar pieces.

I think that would be less hard, you know? Not as much stress with finding/making exact parts. Or, if you are up to it, sculpt out/make molds of parts that are hard to find/construct.
Just a thought.

Stop coming up with awesome ideas. You might hurt yourself.(Thanks, though!)
The molds idea has worked well in the past for cool, little texture bits. If some unique piece can be molded, I'm all for that!! I definitely does save time and, often, money. But the pieces have to be fairly easy to mold. One-sided is often the best. Small is ideal. Large metal parts, or bulky objects like the lamp base, are a little trickier.
But we are definitely on the same creative page!!

Yeah, I can see with the base, and you have to have adequate air "vent" thingies...I forgot what they are called. (I don't do things like that, but tend to read about it)
Unless you can sculpt the base out of paperclay or something durable to make a mold, then fill the mold to make a cast. I also saw you could buy those plaster cloths. cut up those sheets, wet 'em and lather them into general forms, and sand away.
LOL I am sorry, that is my critical thinking thing going on. I
