This elegant and precious 19th-century Florentine oil lamp features a rounded base and a straight, burnished brass stem with four flames. It comes with scissors to trim the wick, a small candle snuffer, and a needle to clean the holes. This wonderful lamp can also be transformed into a lamp stand. Fully functional, simply add burning oil. The lantern is a very ancient object used for lighting before electricity was invented. The brass lamp is the result of an evolution of older lamps made of terracotta, stone, bronze, silver, and gold. In ancient times, vegetable oils were used for combustion, later whale oil, which was later replaced by petroleum.
Uses: Ideal as a decorative accessory in your home, restaurant, or hotel. It can be used as a centerpiece, but also in theatrical performances or as a display case. It can also be transformed into a lamp base.
