This lamp features a substantial solid brass base with a faceted, tapered column and stepped plinth. The clear pressed-glass oil reservoir retains its original burner fittings, including the wick knob, offering a glimpse into its original function. Later fitted with a brass socket and gold silk-wrapped cord, the conversion was done with care and a nod to period detail. Period: Late 19th – early 20th century lamp Materials: Brass (solid, heavy base) and glass with etched detailing.
Lamp measures 22" in height and is 7" at it's widest part. See less
