Brass Oil Lamp, Italy, Circa 1880
Solid brass oil lamp, entirely lathe-turned, featuring a thick circular base, a cylindrical shaft with moldings, and a small upper reservoir equipped with its original hinged wick trimmer.
The entirely hand-crafted nature of the piece and the remarkable sturdiness of the metal allow us to date this object to the late 19th century, although this type of lamp was commonly produced in Italy until the early decades of the 20th century.
Condition: excellent overall condition: beautiful antique patina, uniform wear from use, a very slight—barely noticeable—warping of the circular base.
