Picker's Treasures is pleased to offer this breathtaking hand painted oil lamp for your consideration. This vintage lamp has both it's original glass globes and each one is in very good condition. Hand painted with subtle shades and colors, it is a tribute to the artist that even after all these years, the original artwork is just as soft and inviting today as when it was first applied. Someone clearly took very good care of this Gone with the Wind, style lamp. The colors used by the artist are delicate, not at all over-stated as is so often the case with many old Victorian oil lamps of this style. The heavy glass globes are lightly frosted on the inside, an appealing complement to the subtle shades that accent the hand painted flowers. All of these wonderful details blend together perfectly, creating a sense of warmth and a feeling of welcome that is further enhanced as you will see the moment you light the fully restored oil burner. I can assure you that when lit, the flowers that grace this 10 inch diameter shade will almost seem to come alive. Imagine yourself relaxing as soft music plays and the soft glow of this lovely old lamp gently eases your mind, and coaxes your thoughts to follow it back to those peaceful, Victorian times from whence it came.
Standing a full 24 inches to the top of its chimney, this Gone with the Wind, type oil lamp is ready to cast its soft light around you for years to come. Just imagine.
