FAQs

A crusie lamp is an early form of lighting device designed to burn animal fat, oil, or fish oil using a floating wick, commonly utilised during the 17th and 18th centuries before the widespread adoption of paraffin and electricity.

These lighting devices were typically fashioned from durable metals such as brass, bronze, wrought iron, or tinplate, often shaped through hammering and casting techniques suitable for holding combustible liquids safely.

Authenticity is determined by examining manufacturing marks, tool traces such as hand-hammering or file marks, natural patination of the metal, and correct assembly methods consistent with 18th-century metalworking practises.

This type of historical artefact functions effectively as a sculptural accent piece when displayed on a bookshelf, mantelpiece, or glass-fronted cabinet, adding a layer of historical texture to contemporary schemes.

Preservation requires avoiding harsh chemical polishes that strip historical patination; instead, gently dust the surface with a soft, dry cloth and store in a stable environment away from excess moisture.
