Kerosene Lamps
|
As lighting technology progressed, it was common to see
some carryover of design from one phase to the next. Such is
the case with these kerosene lamps. As with earlier whale oil
lamps, these kerosene lamps are available as a shaded reading
or student lamp (left), a wall-hung lamp which is removable from
the wall bracket and can also be used as a portable lamp (center),
and a portable lamp (right). All are available with either a
simple flat-top font or oil reservoir (center lamp) or a more
stylish raised or domed-top font (left and right lamps). The
shade and bracket, wall hanger and reflector, and different oil
fonts all typify design of earlier period oil and kerosene lamps.
These lamps could date back to the early 1870's.
All of these lamps are crafted using solid brass burners, collars
and fittings. They are functional as well as decorative and use
either kerosene or oderless lamp oil which is available at most
hardware stores. They come complete with wicks and chimneys.
