Antique Late 1880s early 1900s Converted Gas Portable Lamp with Original Japanned Copper FInish and Acid Etched Floral Shade

$750.00

Before the advent of electric table lamps we had gas portable lamps. These interesting lights were attached to ceiling or wall lights via a gas hose which then fed into the back. Here we have a nice original 1880s early 1890s one with an original Japanned Copper finish fitted onto an original granite base. The acid etched floral patterned shade is a period original and the light has been electrified for modern use. Great piece of history.
