I never realized they made fiberglass copies of the Chinese ceramic tiles! And by the looks of it, they really lost detail when they did so. Reminds me of the more modern OA Chinese tiles I've seen that were made from old overused molds that had lost their detail.

Anyway... back to the subject at hand. I too have some Orchids lamps and it would be fun to be able to date them. Sadly, no markers short of UL stickers that are also on Humu's lamps.
