Vintage kerosene lamp

[Joe t]

I recently acquired this lamp from an old house it was full of dirt and spiderwebs, the metal workings are rusted out but surprisingly this glass is intact,

You can get a new wick holder for it it you wanted to use it.

Sometimes the electric goes out and it's a great time to fire up your old lanterns and read a book.
I use olive oil in mine not kerosene. Smells really nice too.

Pretty lamp. Is the wick holder brass or iron. Pretty cruddy looking. A new one would set it off nicely. It could have the makers name and perhaps a date.

Pretty sure that it was iron since it was so rust encrusted I couldn't make out any name
