Condition: antique - very good
Manufacturer: Duplex - England
We are pleased to offer for sale this rare and unusual antique hanging oil lamp. English made and dating to the early 1900's, this lovely antique oil lamp features a solid brass frame, complete with the original plum brown age patina, and is crowned with a lovely red pleated glass shade. The underside of the shade is cased in white glass and so the lamp is able to both offer a pleasing level of light which is complimented, not overpowered, by red overtones. This great old British lamp was made by Duplex and with the new wicks we have added to it's double flame burner, it should continue to last and give off its warm light for decades to come.
The lamp is complete and original and looks like the style of lamp that would have been used to light a railroad dinning car. I say that because it was made in a way that allows for very little movement of the shade, font or chimney.
One thing is for certain, this old oil lamp has enough beauty and charm to compliment any decor.
