A very unique Victorian brass and ruby red glass hanging oil lamp chandelier that probably dates back to the end the 1800's. This gorgeous antique hanging lamp has been carefully restored to its original working condition without any of the major parts needing to be replaced. We did add new 'old vintage stock' brass ladder chains and a very nice period chimney, but other than a good deal of cleaning and polishing and some new hook connections, this lamp has the same parts it did when it was first put into use over 100 years ago. The ruby red ruffled top shade is in perfect condition. The glass is heavy and has a subtle swirled rib pattern to the opaque red glass. The font is glass with a brass top and a Brenner Matador burner. The burner has a few spots that show slight damage; ( see photos) but none that justified replacing such a great looking old burner. There is a counterbalance weight with a band which you could add crystals too if you so desire and with this weighted counterbalance the lamp can be raised and lowered for lighting and cleaning.
This is a heavy, sturdy and very functional antique Victorian oil lamp chandelier that will offer you many years of use while it graces your home with its unique beauty and charm.
