PL-000034An early electric lamp deliberately borrowing from kerosene lamp forms. Aged brass finish beneath an enormous white opal-glass shade. The ribbed brass gallery ring is substantial and beautifully made, and the socket assembly retains its ornate little key-shaped turn switch.

Condition

Operation

Plugged in and verified operational by Patina & Light. This confirms operation when tested, not electrical safety certification; professional inspection is recommended before regular use.

A note about vintage

Patina & Light objects have lived before. Small marks, softened edges, surface variation, patina and signs of handling are part of that history. We photograph and describe condition carefully, but we do not expect an old object to look new — nor would we want it to.

Please review all photographs and condition notes before purchasing. Questions, additional photographs and measurements are always welcome.

We believe age should be understood, not erased.
