Description
Discover this charming vintage miniature oil lamp from the esteemed Plume & Atwood Manufacturing Company, dating to the late 19th to early 20th century. This exquisite lamp features a clear round glass reservoir adorned with hand‑painted floral designs in vibrant red, pink, green, and white hues. The lamp is equipped with a small chimney and a brass burner, marked with the iconic “P&A” insignia.
The lamp stands at approximately 7 1/2 inches tall and includes a later mid‑20th‑century paper shade (likely 1940s–60s) with bright floral prints and rickrack trim, adding a touch of nostalgic charm. The glass body is in very good condition with minor signs of age. The burner shows some expected tarnishing, and the shade is intact with slight creases and light wear.
This vintage oil lamp is a perfect addition for collectors of antique lighting, historical décor enthusiasts, or anyone looking to add a touch of timeless elegance to their space.
