QUESTION: Aplogies, i was trying to capture the base details. More pics attached.

Answer
Hi, I still can't see a lot of detail. but by judging from the shape, style, and color combo, I would say it is that later 1960s - early 1970s Mediterranean style that was popular then. That style is not that popular in decorating now, but someone may pay $50 each for the right room accent.

Thanks
