Based
in the Malvern Hills of England my name is Myles Bevis expert
at rescuing the forgotten oil lamp.
I'm doing my best to save antique oil lamps and
where needed carefully restore and renovate them so these oil lamps may
again enhance the rooms of discerning homemakers.
The Oil Lamp has become
hugely collectible UK and Worldwide.
A generation
or two ago, when electricity was a novelty beautiful oil lamps
were thrown out, commissioned to the shed or
attic, or even worse converted to electricity by drilling through
beautiful cut glass founts and fine brass stands.
I've
found cobweb covered oil lamps in attics, old oil lamps
in ancient garages. I recall a grimy black antique oil lamp lying
on a shelf in a stables saddle room. This cleaned up as a fantastic
amber glass oil lamp. A beautiful, forlorn Hinks ornate brass
oil lamp was the only occupant of a large stone barn to be
converted to holiday apartments.
Famous
oil lamp names such as Hinks, Messenger, Young's and Evered
should have the chance to be seen again!
Every
beautiful oil lamp is looking for a good home where it can again
be displayed, pampered and admired!
A fine Victorian
oil lamp looks splendid as a dining table centre
piece or taking pride of place on a sideboard.
Have
a look round the Oil Lamp Store: see if one or more of these lovely
oil lamps suits your lifestyle.
All
oil lamps in this site, are in good working order unless otherwise
stated.
If an oil lamp is lit and placed under curtains or inflammable material
or where children and pets can knock it over
it could be a fire risk!
Because of this please note the paragraph below for your safety.
All
oil lamps featured in this site are sold under the condition that
they are to be used for decorative purposes only and under no circumstances
should
be filled with paraffin, kerosene or any other flammable liquids
and lit.
