1910-1930 Oil Lamp and Shade

1900 - 1920
Description

Circa 1910-1930 an unusual hand painted decorative oil lamp on a brass column with the original polished terracotta base and period etched glass shade.

The font is painted in a delicate shade of pale, almost transparent green in a design reflecting the changes in style during this period.

The lamp measures 58.5cm to the top of the glass funnel, the base is approximately 18cm in diameter.

Both wick handles have the word DUPLEX on them, and the wording on the glass funnel is: FIRE PROOF, MADE IN CZECHOSLOVAKIA.

Postage and packing for two parcels in the UK only is included in the price. We send the shades out in a separate box to prevent damage. For delivery to outside areas or abroad please contact us for a quote.

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

Edwardian oil lamps typically featured brass or ceramic bases, decorated glass reservoirs, and etched glass shades, bridging the transition between Victorian utilitarianism and early electric lighting.

These lamps were constructed using cast or stamped brass, hand-painted or moulded glass reservoirs, blown glass chimneys, and etched or frosted glass shades, often set upon ceramic or timber plinths.

Authentic examples often display brass burner mechanisms with maker marks, natural surface oxidisation, and mouth-blown glass chimneys featuring subtle hand-made variations.

An antique paraffin lamp serves as a classic accent piece on a sideboard, mantelpiece, or console table, adding historical texture and height to modern eclectic or traditional interiors.

Clean glass components using warm water and mild liquid soap, while wiping brass elements gently with a soft microfiber cloth to avoid stripping the natural aged patina.
