Nb - the lamp in the photos is the one that you'll recieve
Features:
Sherwoods Brass oil lamp
Duplex / double wick burner
Clear glass chimney included
Traditional pedestal base
Decorative brass gallery around burner
Condition:
VERY Good vintage condition with age-related wear, marks, and patina consistent with use and age. The glass chimney is mint and free from cracks or chips. The burner mechanism turns, though I have not fully tested the lamp with fuel.
As you can see in the photos there some tarnishing on the bottom part of the base. I was going to polish this up and make it look new but obviously, this would detract from its great age. I personally think it looks great as it is but if you needed it pristine it'll take you about 5 minutes with some polish to get it sparkling again!
Please examine all photographs carefully as they form part of the description.
Measurements:
Height (including chimney): 54 cm / 21 inches
Base diameter: 16 cm / 6.5 inches
A lovely example of a traditional duplex oil lamp that displays beautifully.
