Description
A vintage non-electric oil lamp composed of polished brass components. The piece is designed for versatile use, comprising a central oil font that nests within a vertical wall-mounting bracket. The bracket is finished with a decorative fleur-de-lis finial incorporating a keyhole mounting point. The lamp is accompanied by a matching separate brass saucer tray. The burner assembly is fitted with a flat cotton wick controlled by a thumbwheel adjuster, and is surmounted by a clear glass chimney with a bulbous lower body and a straight neck. Maker's marks are stamped into the burner base and the thumbwheel. Dimensions (approx. measured against a ruler): H 32 cm (12.5 inches). Condition: The item shows signs of use and age. The brass components exhibit surface tarnish, oxidation, and small areas of pitting. The glass chimney displays light surface scratches and minor internal clouding. The cotton wick is charred from previous operation. No significant dents or cracks are visible to the font or chimney.
