AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Elegant antique oil lamp composed of a reservoir and a foot in pressed glass, richly decorated with geometric motifs, facets and fluting. The shape of the reservoir is particularly worked, with a rounded body resting on a column-shaped foot and a wide circular base also ornamented.

The glass displays a beautiful pale yellow-green tint in natural light and reveals bright green fluorescence under ultraviolet light, confirming the presence of uranium in the glass and its ouraline character.

The lamp is equipped with its old metal burner, with its adjustment knob and decorative gallery. The glass chimney in clear glass is present and removable, as visible in the photographs.

The relief decoration and the various facets of the glass particularly catch the light and give this lamp a very decorative appearance.

Condition: good overall condition considering its age, with some signs of use and small marks linked to age. The photographs are an integral part of the description and allow precise assessment of its condition.

Special feature: ouraline glass, with spectacular green fluorescence under UV
