Description from the seller

Antique petroleum hanging lamp / harplamp from Hugo Schneider AG (Henga/HASAG) with opal glass shade – c. 1900

Description:
Beautiful and unusually well-preserved antique petroleum hanging lamp (harplamp) from the period around 1900, manufactured by the renowned German maker Hugo Schneider AG (HASAG) of Leipzig. The burner knob carries the original factory mark "Henga", a sought-after brand name among collectors of historic lighting.

This lamp is in exceptionally beautiful, nearly unused condition. The burner (a high-quality round burner with the characteristic openwork crown) is even still equipped with its original cotton wick, underscoring how little the lamp has been used over the decades.

The sturdy metal frame has a gorgeous, authentically aged patina. Thanks to the integrated hanger eye on the frame, the lamp could be mounted either from the ceiling or on a wall bracket at the time.

The lamp is completed by a spotless white opal glass shade (vestascherm) that softly disperses the light. An especially interesting detail is the original glass cylinder. It features a refined German inscription etched on it with an image of a tiny glow-lamp and the words: "GAS-GLÜHLICHT – Doppelt gekühlt – F." This type of glass was at the time combined by the factory or used as an early conversion to ensure optimal and stable air cooling.

Specifications:
• Manufacturer: Hugo Schneider AG (HASAG), Leipzig, Germany
• Brand mark: "Henga" on the burner knob
• Style: Art Nouveau / Jugendstil (Classic)
• Material: Brass (burner and tank), patinated iron/steel (support frame), opal glass (shade) and clear glass (cylinder)
• Height: 48 cm (total height including hanger eye)
• Shade diameter: 28 cm
• Weight: 880 g
• Condition: In exceptionally good vintage condition, essentially unused. The glass and opal glass shade are completely free from cracks or chips. See the photos for an accurate impression; they form part of the description.

Shipping and transport information:
Because this is a delicate antique object, I take extreme care to arrange extremely safe and professional transport. The lamp is skillfully dismantled (shade, glass and frame protected separately) and packed with a high-quality combination of foam, thick bubble wrap and sturdy buffering paper to fully absorb shocks during transit. The package is shipped fully insured and with track & trace, so you are guaranteed a safe arrival.
