Antique Victorian Cranberry Glass Oil Lamp on Brass Corinthian Column

A beautiful mid-Victorian cranberry glass oil lamp mounted on an elegant brass Corinthian column base. The lamp features a rich cranberry glass font with lovely depth of colour sitting above a finely cast Corinthian capital leading into a reeded brass column and stepped plinth base—classic Victorian neoclassical styling.

It retains its period burner and controls together with a decorative frosted and etched glass original shade displaying scrolling foliate motifs typical of the mid-19th century. The combination of the vibrant glass, quality brass casting and detailed shade creates a wonderfully decorative and authentic piece.

A superb Victorian lamp that would enhance any traditional or period interior—perfect for a side table, console, or mantel. It can remain as an oil lamp or be sympathetically converted to electricity if desired.

Condition

Good period condition. The cranberry glass and shade both present extremely well. Clean and ready to display.
