The plug was made from leviton which was first founded in 1906
Re: lighted horse carriage
Lamps like this were made in Germany and Japan in the 1930's. There appears to be a marking on the base of the second picture, what does it say? Also these pieces nearly always have a company marking on the underside of the figurine itself, but you'd have to take the metal base off to see it. Check again for marks and get back to us with what you find.

Thankyou you were right 1930 germany. Now I have some knowledge of the piece.
