Matching pair of oil lamps, circa 1880s, each avbout 17" tall, made of what looks like a white metal with a light brass plating. Metal is ornately decorated with a punched design. Each lamp has 3 sides which are a piece of heavy bevelled glass.
Lamps are in need of restoration. On one lamp, the bottom piece is detached and the hinged door is partially detached. On the other lamp, the hinged door is completely detached, and one of the little pieces of metal which forms a frame around the front glass piece needs to be re-soldered.
Lamps are in complete, but challenged condition. They require soldering and TLC to be restored. They are still, though, very nice and unusual with a great floral punched tin design unlike anything I've ever seen before. They have been stored for about 15 yrs in hopes that I'd find a use for them.

I didn't, so here they are! Don't miss these.
They are being sold as is. It is a final sale and they are priced accordingly. If perfect, these could run in the several hundred dollar range. |
