Your description mentions you've been told it was made by Orchids; it doesn't fit the specs of most of the Orchids of Hawaii lamps I know about though, because it doesn't have a translucent fiberglass cylinder as it's core. Of the OoH lamps I've seen, all have this cylinder except the big scallop spheres and one bamboo tube. Not that thats a bad thing at all; OoH is the best documented so far and I'm just trying to identify stuff as it's posted here. There isn't much printed documentation on lamps that were made for tiki bars and most of what I know is right here on TC. Maybe its an earlier OoH model (the oldest OoH bamboo tube I've got is the one without the cylinder), or maybe it was made by Oceanic Arts? Anyone?
