Antique Oil Lamps Of Superior Quality Online
Featured Oil Lamp Shade
Large Etched Cranberry Glass Closed Tulip Oil Lamp Shade
The
Oil Lamp has become more and more collectible over the course of
the last few years in the UK and Worldwide. A generation or two ago,
when electric light was still a comparative novelty beautiful oil lamps
were indiscriminately thrown out, dumped, commissioned to the shed or
attic, or even worse converted to electricity by drilling holes through
beautiful cut glass founts and fine brass bases to insert flex.
As
a private collector of the oil lamp based in the Malvern Hills of England
I am doing my best to rescue as many antique oil lamps as
possible and
where needed carefully restore and renovate them. These oil lamps may
again decorate and enhance the rooms of discerning homemakers.
I've
found cobweb covered oil lamps in attics and lofts, old oil lamps
hanging in ancient garages. I recall a grimy black antique oil lamp lying
on a shelf in a stables saddle room. This turned out to be a fantastic
amber glass oil lamp. A beautiful and forlorn Hinks ornate brass
oil lamp was the only occupant of a large stone barn about to be
converted to holiday apartments.
Famous
oil lamp names such as Hinks, Messenger, Young's and Evered
should have the chance to shine again!
The
antique, collectible and superior oil lamps featured in this site have been
cleaned, serviced, and except where stated, are in full working order, but to
comply
with current regulations I must mention that they should be used for decoration
only.
Every
oil lamp is presently looking for a good home where it can again
be displayed, pampered and admired for the article of functional beauty
that it is! A fine Victorian oil lamp looks splendid as a dining table centre
piece or taking pride of place on a sideboard and creates a wonderful
soft illumination when lighted.
Have
a look round the Oil Lamp Store: see if one or more of these lovely
oil lamps suits your lifestyle.

A few weeks ago I conversed with a man who explained how his cat barged his prized all glass oil lamp off a shelf on to a stone tiled floor.
I couldn't tell him how to fix the oil lamp but click on the picture above to go to a site that tells you about training cats! |
