Marco P. started a mystery photo challenge.  It was really fun!  For some time now, he has been doing celebrities.  I don't know much about celebrities, so it's not interesting to me.  I've decided to start a new one (I promise no celebrities!).

This is a snippet from a photo.  Try to guess what it is!  I will monitor the guesses and give hints.

KRISTY M. IS THE WINNER!

My first guess is with Jennifer P., in that it's the base of an Art Deco, wall-mounted light fixture. My second guess is that, as Day Tripper Diva suggested, it's an upside-down leg of an office chair (with the wheel on top). (Note that I came up with my answers before reading the comments, but I wanted to at least give first credit where it's due.)
April J. Aug 20, 2007, 4:35pm EDT
Those lines on the side look like they're for measuring something.
