Description

A superb antique Victorian brass oil lamp of elegant tall proportions richly detailed and beautifully preserved.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Popularised in the late nineteenth century, these lamps combine classical Neoclassical architectural elements, such as fluted columns and Corinthian capitals, with functional brass paraffin or kerosene burners.

They typically feature solid brass bases, stems, and reservoirs, paired with clear glass chimney flues and frosted or opaline glass shades to soften light output.

Authentic examples feature heavy cast or stamped brass components, burner mechanisms stamped with historical manufacturer trademarks, and precise fluted detailing along the column stem.

These lamps serve as striking decorative objects on sideboards, mantelpieces, or writing desks, adding warmth, architectural height, and historic texture to modern rooms.

Dust the brass regularly with a soft dry cloth and clean glass components with warm soapy water; avoid harsh chemical cleaners that can strip natural age patina from the brass.
