✅ SOLVED Lighting Part?

[Cantstopdigging]

Hello Forum,

I found this item, and originally I thought it was part of an oil lamp. After cleaning it up, I’m having doubts. Is this an electrical socket holder, or house part? I can’t seem to find a similar one on the web. Thanks for looking.

My guess is part of a vintage kerosine lantern,

I have a shoe box full of old lamp parts, and nothing looks like this. There is no wick advance knob. It also has a machine screw.

Could be part of a tractor air intake cleaner.

I found this bell part in this general area a while back. Could it be from an old phone?

I think I can mark this as solved. Porcelain socket holder.
