About the rosewood fan, I agree the sideband does looks like SMC's filigree but due to the long oval pull chain there high chances that it would be Encon.
Cool I always wanted to see these little 6 bladed hugger installed with 3 blades. But why you don't put the housing cover around the motor? Does it spins weirdly with only 3 blades? Apparently you can also mount 6 bladed fans as 4 bladed fans. Try it!
Does the Harbor Breeze with the over pitched blade wobbles?

Sideband definitely isnt Encon. You can change a pullchain it's harder to change a sideband.

thanks guys i liked the nutone industrial too but im not selling it i wanted it for my collection.
also the 6 blade Vortex hugger i have i did turned it as a 3 blade instead because im missing 2 blade arms and i have another 2 that are borken to pieces and the other 2 brackets are in good shape.
so i can turn that hugger into a 2 blade but i like 3 blade better
The smc and the harbor breeze is in a place called Line x its where they fix trucks cars but there aint much to do at that place i use to work at subways there was lots of stuff to do and i liked there Hampton bays
oh hey cole when you asked me a question about that 5 blade smc with the writtening on the switch house?
well those words on there say summer or winter thats why you probly thought the fan had a name on it but it just shows when ever which way the fan spins thats why

Oh, okay. From it being a bit blurry, it looked like the Craftmade logo on the fan at our local Perkins restaurant.
You can only mount a six blade as four if it's spaced equally on the motor. As it would appear, his hugger motor is not like that. Examples of what I'm talking about are Homestead Universals and those Encon Original copies.

Yeah that's what I toughed too about 6 bladed fans that can be mounted with 4 blades. Most of em are just 2 or 3. In my opinion 2 blades on fan is not enough. 3 is the right choice. The tag on the Rosewood fan looks more oval like a Emerson tag. Here's a Craftmade tag. And here's the Encon pulls I was talking about:

Does the pullchain thing say anything?

Regency had pulls like that for a while as well, as did numerous other companies. There's no way to relate them especially to Encon.

Encon, Regency, Concord and maybe Quorum have/had those pulls.
I also know Encon made some of those 90s Rosewood with gold lines at the tip of the blades fans but not with a sideband like that. SMC did too but it had a rounded housing with 3 spot light kit.
Westinghouse still makes a 220V fan call the Cyclone with the same blades and brackets but the housing is different.

is that your craftmade ceiling fan that is a nice one wish i had it. Yes its my Craftmade Decorative 42''. Got it new last September. You should consider you self lucky to have all the fans you have compare to me. Ceiling fans around here are not as common as they are in the USA that why its harder to find some here and there. But it a pretty nice fans and its not as cheap as what most peoples think. Absolutely no wobble and move a pretty good amount of air. The Encon pulls comes from my Encon Princess 42''.
