    I love these applied crimped rocket feet. They were applied from the base, reflected back and then crimped. This shape doesn't appear in Truitt or Butler Bros. but many similar feet do. It goes straight to the front of the tango shelf.
    In the Butler Bros catalogues of the 1920s, these bases are called simply feet or pedestal bases, but our glass bible Truitt has them as "rocket ship" feet, nodding to their modernism, after the fact.
    25.5cm high.

      I find these rocket tangos so appealing. They trigger happiness for me.

      Well this looks a bit familiar..:) Love this shape too. So would mine date to the same period even with the different shape ??
