Excellent condition!
This lovely, sweet oil lamp was converted to electric at some point in her history, and now she has been cleaned and has freshly updated wiring.
Her brass has some light patina, but no cracks or gouges.
Her milk glass shade, milk glass font and her clear glass chimney have no chips, cracks or stains.
Her eye-catching crystal prisms are lovely - we don't find any chips or cracks - only a tiny flea bite on the tip of one or two (the prisms will be removed for shipping).
Her brass filigree above the prisms and at the top of the chimney add a fancy flair to this feminine beauty. :)
Her glass font has been adhered to the brass holder so that she never topples out.
She uses 1 standard-base light bulb up to 60 watts, or use an LED bulb for any brightness you like, as they use low wattage for bright light.
Light bulb and wall mount screws not included.
This beautiful antique is from a large antique lighting collection in Fenton, Michigan - see and watch our store for more from this fantastic collection. Here are details about the restorer:
The late Bob Daly was a marathon runner and worked in his family's burgler alarm business until he started his own antique lighting restoration business in Fenton, Michigan in the 1980's: "Historic Lighting Restoration Services and Sales". He was restoring antique lighting for almost 40 years. This beautiful light was thoughtfully and skillfully restored by Bob to the tiniest detail. From new wiring to cleaning to touching up, buffing and polishing, Bob was a master at the details. He loved what he did and was excited to share these restored works of art with the next generation (see a newspaper article picture of him in photo #24). He worked with loving care, and you can be proud to own one of his restorative works of art. We are certainly proud to have acquired his amazing collection, as we also restore and sell antique lighting and love to share it with all of you who want true antique pieces that have historic personality in your homes and buildings. Many thanks to Bob's wife, Luce, for contacting us and allowing us to share his collection with the world! :)
