Yeah, it definately looks like a marelli. Is there anything written under the base?

Yes I agree the blade, cage and struts are definitely Marelli. The motor is interesting, could you post a picture of the side view perhaps?
The earlier cages of this type had nine "S" wires like yours, the later ones had eight only.

Hi to all,
Here is a new picture I cant look at the base yet as its still at my aunts these are just some pics i took when i was there last.
I was hoping it was a Marelli i love the look of the fan any idea as to what voltage it runs on. I know the brush is missing hope that wont be a problem to find a replacement brush.
here is the top view of motor housing

Hopefully it will have the voltage written under the base. It will either be 110v, 220/240v or maybe 150v (probably not though) . If you run it on 110 and the speed seems fine then its probably a 110v fan, you are also missing the cap for your grease cup on the back there. I'm not sure where you can get the parts from, someone on the forum will be abkle to help you though. has pretty much the same motor as one I just bought from oz (my one has oilers though and not grease cups) . Good luck with it they're great fans

I hate to be the one to break the bad news, but it looks like your 'aunt' has just sold it on eBay, and has even had the cheek to use your pictures to sell it!
Really, you wouldn't expect a family member to be so dishonest...

You got to watch out for those "evil aunts"
Case in point, Aunt Esther from Sanford and Sons....
She'd sell your fan in a heart beat!!
