Description
This is a vintage/antique, Victorian 1800s, never-been-used, small, clear-glass & brass, finger-hold, working, oil lamp (without shade) made by BURNER. It is also marked "P & A Mfg Co." USA Waterbury Conn on the brass turn knob. There is an original, paper label with the #15 on the side of the glass. It is a small, oil lamp measuring approximately 4.25 inches in diameter by 5 inches in height to the top of the brass mount. The lamp consists of a pressed, clear-glass base with finger-hold & embossed star design on the bottom, a 1 inch brass screw cap permanently affixed to the glass, a 2 inch cone-shape brass-mount top which screws into the brass top of the lantern, a working adjustable knob, & an original cloth wick. There are 4 brass prongs to hold a glass, hurricane shade which is missing & not included. I would imagine an antique shade would not be too difficult to find & if not they still make new ones that would fit. This beauty is in excellent, never-used condition with the only flaw of discoloration & spotting on the brass top marked Banner. Please be sure before purchasing as this item is NOT returnable.
