Clarkes Patent Cricklites were innovative patented table lamps introduced in the late 19th century, designed to burn specially formulated night lights safely beneath decorative glass shades.

These pieces typically combine mould-blown or cut clear glass bases with metal mounts and delicate cased or swirled opalescent glass shades.

Authentic pieces often bear patent marks or manufacturer stamps on the metal collar or glass components, alongside characteristic hand-blown glass textures and period-appropriate wear.

They make striking focal points on a dining table, mantelpiece or sideboard, reflecting ambient candlelight through their coloured glass shades to add texture and historical contrast to contemporary schemes.

Clean glass components gently with lukewarm water and mild soap, avoiding harsh chemicals or abrasives, and handle delicate shades with extreme care to prevent chipping.
