Fascinating piece. I wonder if Fred painted the base?
There's either a rod that goes through the cup itself or one attached to the bottom of the cup. There should be a hole through the center of the base (covered by the felt) and the rod is connected to the base with a hex nut.

Should be very simple to remove from the base.
