ABOUT THIS ITEM

Description

Up for sale is a beautiful vintage miniature parlor style oil lamp standing approximately 14 inches tall. This piece features a striking rich red color achieved via a flashed glass technique over clear glass blanks, creating a gorgeous vibrant accent light.

Key Components & Features:

  • Shade: Smooth, bulbous red flashed glass dome shade. Shows standard vintage aging/ambering around the top clear collar edge.
  • Font/Reservoir: Matching red flashed glass fuel reservoir featuring a distinct textured hobnail pattern.
  • Burner Assembly: Completely original brass colour burner mechanism featuring a custom-stamped "Crown" emblem on the thumbwheel wick winder (associated with historical German manufacturers like Hugo Schneider / Erich & Graetz).
  • Base: Tiered brass-plated magnetic metal pedestal base. Retains its original paper "FOREIGN" import sticker underneath, indicating it was imported into the UK market during the mid-20th century.
  • Chimney: Includes a matching red flashed glass bulged Kosmos-style chimney (6-line size, 3.2cm base fitter diameter).

Condition Details (Please Read):

The lamp is structurally sound, clean, and displays beautifully as a cohesive set.

Please note: The red inner glass chimney has a small hairline crack near the top rim (clearly shown in the photos). Due to this, the red chimney is intended for static display purposes only. If you intend to safely light and use the lamp, the burner accepts standard 6-line clear Kosmos replacement chimneys (3.2cm/32mm base diameter) which are widely available online.

Minor expected patina/oxidation to the brass components, slight age-related wear to the brass plating on the magnetic base, and faint chemical finish discoloration near the shade rim commensurate with age. Perfect addition to any vintage glass, lighting, or mid-century decor collection.
