This ceiling fan was purchased by my parents and installed in our upstairs hallway when we moved into the house in 2000. I don't think I was with them when they bought it, and have no clue where it is from. I always assumed it was a Hampton Bay like the rest of the fans they bought at the time, but after doing some research, I realized the motor looked SMC like, I also noticed the motor tag isn't like the Hampton Bays we have.   The motor tag: Pardon the dust, I didn't realize how dusty it was until I got a ladder out and didn't have time to look for a duster.  There is no extension pole, which leaves me with little room to take a picture from a good angle. |

It's definitely made by Halsey. Halsey makes fans with this style of detachable switch housing. And UL file number E81964 indicates it's made by Halsey.

Definitely Halsey made. I like it regardless of what it is!

Does this one have cane up top? I suppose it's a Murray Feiss, but then again Murray Feiss fans say Murray Feiss on the sticker atop the motor housing (at least usually they do).
Did your parents buy it used? Reason I ask is because there's a 4 digit number reading '1291' meaning December (12) of 1991 ('91). I think it'd be older than 2000 ('00), just due to its characteristics (filigree, light kit, etc.).

I've never had a Murray Feiss with a sticker on the top, anyone I've ever encountered had the sticker on the switch housing. And a pullchain that said Murray Feiss or North American Fan Association.
Now that Vincent posted that it does remind me of a Feiss fan that was like that but the catalog I had only had these in five blade configurations. This was around probably 1995 when that catalog came out.

My parents bought their first house in 1995, and it never had any ceiling fans when we lived there. It's possible they bought it in '95 but never installed it. Maybe my grandparents, or my aunt bought it earlier and never used it and just gave it to us when we moved. They did buy dining room furniture from an estate sale when we moved in, it is possible they bought it from the same place. I remember it was new in the box when we got it along with the other fans. Unfortunately I don't remember the box very well, because I'm sure it would have said what model. Other than that, they don't usually buy stuff second hand. |

I know the sticker is a little hard to read, but it is a 42" fan, and it says it was made in Taiwan. Also I believe the pull chains are original. I don't know if these details will help or not.

Does anyone have an idea what this fan is? The more I looked into it, the less certain I am. It doesn't look quite like other Halsey fans.

It's definitely made by Halsey. That UL file number goes to Halsey.
