ENQUIRE

This antique Princess Feather oil lamp is one of the most popular glass lamps made in the USA. It was produced from 1895 – 1907 in a wide range of sizes and colours. These included combinations of coloured glass or coloured and clear glass and sizes from massive sewing lamps to smaller stand lamps.

This particular antique Princess Feather lamp is the taller form of stand lamp in clear glass. It does, however, have a slight tinge of colour from sun exposure. The colour is barely noticeable in daylight but it can be seen in the artificial light we use for our photos.

The matching Princess Feather chimney is a current reproduction of the original chimneys and is a faithful representation of the antique chimneys.

The lamp is also fitted with a new burner and a new wick. The lovely embossed floral pattern around the cap of the burner compliments the patterns in the lamp and the chimney, further adding to its beauty.

Condition

This delightful kerosene lamp is in excellent condition without any cracks, bruises or damage of any kind. It does, however, have a couple of small air bubbles and minor manufacturing flaws. These are nothing more than you would expect to find in lamps of this age. It also has a couple of small fleabites on the inside rim of the foot. it is hard to say whether this is as it left the factory or if it has happened during use. Either way, they are not visible and are only mentioned for accuracy. They don’t effect the presentation or the use of the lamp in any way.
