Very cute fan. It reminds me of the View Fans Adam just got and also similar to something made by TAT.

Alot of times the sticker wont say manufacturer, but seeing the style of the sticker still can ID the make.. TATs and King of Fans are famous for doing this

It also looks like something that could have been offered by Orient Fans Co. The US one, not the Indian one obviously. |

TATs and King of Fans are famous for doing this Do your View Fans have a sticker on the motor saying "Quality Approved"? Also I'll take a picture of the stickers later today and post them here. |

Ah alright, I'll post the stickers on the top of the motor on here later today, hopefully that will help in identifying this fan. I don't know why I didn't think of showing them earlier. |

Here are the stickers. Caution sticker on the top of the motor housing.  "Quality Approved" sticker on the top of the motor housing  42" sticker on the bag that the blade arms were in. I'm assuming this bag is original to the fan sense it has this sticker on it and the fan is in fact 42"  |

Those are just inspection, and caution stickers.. The label with the amp ratings etc. would be the one to look at, if the fan has one..

Yeah I know but that's the only stickers this fan has unfortunately. Do you think there would be any other indication in the housing? I wouldn't think there would be but you never know. |

Possibly on the the actual motor. But I would not take the fan all apart unless you really have too..

It's just a spinner motor, it shouldn't do any harm to at least take the bottom part of the motor housing off and have a look. I could try and look through the top vents though. I don't plan to take it all apart, that's something I only do if the fan is really dirty inside and I care enough to clean it or if it needs some work. I think I remember seeing a green sticker on the motor, but I don't think it was of any importance. But I'm gonna go have a look anyway and I'll post it if it's relevant. |

Definitely not what I had anticipated. Judging by those labels, the fan might not even be 15-years old. In addition to having a glimpse at the motor, it might also prove insightful see the wiring...
