Description
The lamp has a pierced base in brass and a circular mount also in brass. The base is held up by three small rolled feet. The lamp has a removable cylinder to hold the fuel, and a brass insert with a wick. The mouth would hold the glass shade. It has a tooled design and piercing.
MEASUREMENTS
2 in (5.1 cm) diameter x 2 1/8 in (5.4 cm) tall. Weighs 3.4 oz.
CONDITION
The lamp is missing the glass shade or chimney. There are no breaks, chips, cracks, or repairs. The brass rim here the chimney would have gone has some corrosion from use. The brass near the wick is blackened from soot. The cloisonne is bright and clean. The burner has a cotton wick.
With its vibrant cloisonné and intricate brass work, this lamp offers both history and charm—an irresistible find for the discerning collector.
