Description from the seller
Set of 2 petroleum lamps
Vintage green swan-neck lamp in brass and green glass –
Description:
Wall lamp, vintage desk lamp in Art Deco style.
Base: brass swan-neck
Condition: Old electrical wiring to be reviewed/secured.
Beautiful patina on the brass
Late 19th – early 20th century (circa 1890–1920) for the original pieces: The green blown glass reservoir, the perforated brass burner/nozzle and the swan-neck base date from the golden age of oil lamps (Napoleon III / Belle Époque / Art Nouveau).
Second half of the 20th century (1960s–1980s) for electrification: The black plastic socket visible at the top and the electric cord are later additions made to transform it into a modern bedside or desk lamp.
White oil lamp
Burner: Late 19th or early 20th century (approx. 1890–1920). The knurling bears the inscription « KOSMOS BRENNER » with the logo of the famous Wild & Wessel (W&W) manufacturer in Berlin/Vienna, a major reference for oil lamp mechanisms.
Glass: Mid-20th century (1920–1960). Marked « Cristal » with a mill logo and the inscription « Importé de Tchécoslovaquie - 20''' ». This is an era-appropriate replacement glass for a Kosmos 20-line burner.
