This gorgeous Victorian oil lamp with a porcelain figural base and a original ruby Victorian etched shade. It stands 83 cm approx. To the top of the chimney. The font and the globe shade are both in good condition. It has a brass double burner, in working condition.
The porcelain base of the lamp is quite spectacular with 3 dancing wood-nymphs around a central tree? With all the lovely pastel colours of blue, green, purple and gold flowers and leaves, etc. As you can see from the photos all the little fingers are intact and the only damage I can see is one small leaf that is chipped.
Please see photos for full description and condition. Quite amazing on a piece with this age, I would say around 1880's. It has been well looked after and deserves a good home. I try to point out the most obvious flaws or damage I can see and to be as honest as I possibly can be.Please understand that old items have a tendency to be slightly scuffed or marked in some way or another over years of use.
