Description

A vintage oil lamp featuring a distinctive mottled orange and white glass finish on both the fuel reservoir base and the decorative hurricane shade. The lamp includes a brass-toned metal burner mechanism with an adjustment wheel and a clear glass chimney. The design is characteristic of early 20th-century decorative lighting, often used for ambient light or as a statement piece in homes.

Condition Report

Extensive chipping and peeling to the orange and white mottled finish on both the glass base and the hurricane shade. The metal burner shows signs of age, tarnishing, and some surface corrosion consistent with its vintage nature.
