<p>Yes, it's definitely your lamp, Johnny is the Crestworth expert, no probs!</p>
<p><br></br>The analysis we put in before he entered the thread is right, though, if you look carefully, it's the Astro Nordic MK1 base with the "Jet" barrel let into it, by the Crestworth team, presumably, on a custom French order - I'd call it a "factory bitser"...</p>

<p>Yes the first metal Jets were called Astro Nordic Deluxe</p>
<p>It certainly looks one piece, but I don't think it was spun as one piece.</p>
<p>My eyes are old, but I think a wider hole in the Cosmos base was expertly cut and the barrel inserted</p>

<p>The base is one piece....</p>
