Antique French Oil Lamp

This is a very pretty little antique French oil lamp from the early 1900s.

The blue glass font is a lovely colour and the embossed diamond and quatrefoil pattern gives it an added dimension.

The simple brass base covers a heavy weight that keeps the lamp very stable. There is also felt lining on the underside of the base for the protection of your furniture.

Condition

Overall, this antique French oil lamp is in very good to excellent condition.

The blue glass font is free of any chips, cracks, repairs or damage of any kind and the glass is free from any stains or cloudiness.

The brass base has a couple of tiny dents which are hard to see. It is quite surprising that there aren’t more dents for this is a lamp that would have been used regularly.

There are a couple of marks around the base of the collar. It looks as if it may have been removed and reattached in the past. It is still firmly secured today.

Finally, the burner is in good working order including a new wick. The chimney is in excellent condition.
