Description
A nice example of a brass Corinthian column table lamp dating from the late 19th century. Originally an oil lamp base, it has now been converted to an electric table lamp and re-wired with a standard bayonet bulb holder. It has a traditional column design set on a round fluted base with a black ceramic foot. It has a brass oil font with its original burner on top and within this is the bulb holder. It has a lovely amber glass shade and its original glass chimney.
It is in good working order and has been Pat Tested for electrical safety. The amber glass provides a lovely warm glow when lit up.
The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions just ask.
