Antique Lighting from The Drawing Room

# 4445. Offering a Bradley & Hubbard (at least the burner is marked "B. & H.") table lamp. Size: to the top of the shade ring: 10" and the ring takes a 4" shade. NO shade.This lamp which dates from before the turn of the century is very Aesthetic in style. The workmanship of the metalware is consistent with that of Meriden, Gorham, Tufts, Barbour, Pairpoint and Rogers Bros. silver plate companies. Condition: dirty, oily surface, I believe that the silver plate is still intact. The metal is probably case hardened white metal. A repetative high relief decor of flowers encircle the lamp sitting on feet of horned male smiling faces. There is great detail and character to this lamp. There is still kerosene fumes in the font and there is a round wick intact. The lamps smells of ancient use. The top of the font which is silver plate on brass shows wear through to the brass and there are some dents in the base of the font as shown in one of the images. The shade ring is also siver plate. Price: $650.00
