Rare Frosted Cranberry Glass "Pull Down" Pendant #P111200A: This is an old, c.1870, kerosene lamp that has been electrified. Solid brass fixture. Etched frosted cranberry glass shade. The total length of this lamp is 29". Price: $2885.00


   
   
   

Hard to Find Welsbach Gas Lamp Designed to Burn "Down" #C41902C: This two arm chandelier measures 34"L x 26"W. Very early and rare "pleated" milk glass shades. Unfortunately, the original gas mantle and series of baffles were missing when I bought it. This lamp has been wired and I recomend low wattage bulbs to give that old gas look. Price: $1185.00

Very Rare "Quilted Egg" Cranberry Glass Pendant #P71903A: This c.1880 lamp was originally an oil pull down fixture. It is 29" in length with a shade diameter of 7.5". SOLD


 
       

Cranberry Hobnail "Pull Down" Pendant #P92803E: Magnificent! This cranberry glass and solid brass lamp is 29.5" in length with a diameter of 7". Note: There is a ceiling mount available for hanging the lamp, if necessary, in your application. Price: $1785.00


         

c.1875 Rare Cranberry "Pull Down" Pendant #P121404B: I must apologize as the photos do not do this magnificent lamp justice. The detail of the coin-dot, ruffled, cranberry glass shade along with the surrounding lighting made my camera go out of focus. I have wired this original oil lamp for up to 150 watts. I did not damage the solid brass structure and it is possible to convert it back. Total length is 30.5". The diameter at the middle of the shade is 8". Wonderful detail. Price: $1785.00


#P11905D: Available.


     

#P11905E: Available.


       
       

"Country Store" Ceiling Lamp #C031005A: This rare "Juno" country store fixture has been converted from oil to electricity. We did the work by fixing the socket in the center draft space in the center of the tank - No extra holes anywhere. We did nothing to prevent a "retrofit" back to oil. The canopy was added, as were the electrical parts...otherwise everything else looks original. This lamp is 41"L x 16"W. The tin shade is about 4"L x 15"W. The brass tank and burner is 9"L x 10"W. The "Queen" chimney is 12"L x 4"W. Price: $685.00


     


     

     

Very Finely Etched Cylinder Pendant #P032207A : c. 1905-1910 Lamp is 30” high and 7.25” wide. Shade is one of the finest etched cylinders I have seen in years. Wonderfully detailed and deeply etched. Shade is 9.5" high and 7.25" in diameter. Fixture is solid brass. Shade origin was probably from a kerosene lamp. Rewired ok for 1 x 150 watts. Price: $ 1785.00
