Oil lamp - Cast brass

RARE FIND: Antique NEPTUNE NR Brass Ship’s Lantern – Museum Condition – NEVER FIRED (NOS) ​Description: ​Up for sale is a truly exceptional piece of maritime history: an original NEPTUNE NR nautical oil lantern made of solid brass and copper. ​The Highlight: This lantern is a genuine "New Old Stock" (NOS) find. In all its decades, it has never been lit, remaining in its pristine, original factory condition. ​Technical Details: ​Condition: Unused / Never Fired. The wick is snow-white, fluffy, and completely clean. ​Burner: Features the original "WEDGE" brass burner in perfect working order. ​Material: Heavy, solid brass construction with authentic copper rivets. ​Glass: Thick industrial-grade glass on all four sides, free from cracks, heat damage, or soot. ​Markings: Original embossed Neptune emblem featuring the God of the Sea with his trident. ​Patina: Beautiful, natural aged patina. The lantern has not been chemically polished to preserve its authentic antique character. ​Why this specific lantern? While many Neptune lanterns are available on the market, almost all show signs of use, soot, or fuel odors. This specific unit is odorless and clean, making it a "holy grail" for high-end maritime collectors or as an exclusive decor piece for luxury interiors, offices, or yachts.
