AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Antique multi-oil lamp on stand – brass and iron – circa 1880–1910
Ancient multi-oil lamp / fat lamp on a stand, made of brass with iron parts. This type of lamp was used as functional lighting in civil interiors, workspaces, or for ecclesiastical use in Northwest Europe.
The lamp is equipped with multiple burners and fitted with original chains, including accompanying accessories such as a wick cutter (scissors) and Dover, making the whole complete and collectible. The design is sober and functional, characteristic of late 19th-century Northern European lighting.
The object is in honest, used condition with a beautiful, natural patina appropriate for its age. No visible cracks or missing parts. The cords are present but old; the lamp has not been tested for use and is sold as a decorative antique item.
