Latest Find-Top Mount (Moss? Palm Air?)

[mndoss06]

I picked up this top mount today from the VA Beach Restore. It came with everything pictured. Aside from not coming with any blades it's probably one of the most complete fans I've ever found at a Restore! I don't know who made this, my first thought was that it was a Moss WF Series but the switch housing and canopy make me think otherwise. The canopy is very interesting, I've never seen one like it before! It's ball and socket but it's hidden inside the canopy, very neat! The fan is in overall very nice condition aside from one of the blade arms being badly bent. That's unfortunate because the other three match perfectly! I'll play around with it at some point to bend it back.

That is a Key Largo canopy . . . I have had two versions of this fan before, neither had this canopy or anything else that made them seem Key largo-y in any way. Makes me wonder if the canopy is original in this case.

It's not Moss. Could be Palm-Air, although it is not similar to the top mount Palm Airs I've had.

Not sure what it is either, Palm Air is as close as I could get as well. I love those Key Largo canopies, the integrated slope ceiling adaptor was genius.

Thanks Jeremy and thanks for the info Dan and Cole! I wasn't too concerned about the lack of blades, I've got plenty of spares that I can use with this. To be honest they might have been there somewhere but I didn't care to look too hard for them. The fan was packed in a Panama II box so there was no room for blades and I didn't notice them sitting around it.

It uses a very nice set of walnut stencil blades . . . you should look for them!

I'll keep an eye out for them when I go back to the Restore, I tend to go to that one every week (as well as the Norfolk one). It's great having them both so close to my house!
