This 19-inch standing kerosene lamp features a turquoise-coloured glass font and a clear glass chimney. The piece is constructed with an ornate, pierced cast metal base displaying scrolling foliate and rococo-style motifs. The metal burner assembly is fitted with an adjustment knob bearing stamped characters, though these are worn and illegible. A fabric wick remains inside the reservoir. The lamp is a traditional non-electrical paraffin or oil-burning model, typical of late 19th or early 20th-century British or European manufacture.
Height: 19 inches.
