19th Century Blown Glass Wedding Lamp, circa 1870

About the Item

Very Rare Double Font Wedding Lamp, by D.C. Ripley (patented 1870), with two blown into mold aqua blue opaline reservoirs, clambroth match holder, and milk glass base, stamped with maker's name and date on one side of collar. The lamp remains in fine condition with original brass burners, though there are a few original tiny fissures made when the lamp was pressed. This is a very rare period oil lamp, called a "wedding lamp" due to the two fonts "married" together in one lamp. It is in a classic and very desirable color combination, and remains in great condition. Measures: 11-3/4 in H to burner x 9-1/2 in W x 5-1/8 in Deep; Overall: 21 in H including chimneys

    Located in Nantucket, MA
    Fine 19th century trinity house marquetry inlaid rosewood sewing box, circa 1870, made by a Trinity House Lighthouse Keeper or sailor aboard a Lightship for sale to passing ships. The rosewood box features marquetry inlaid cutter-rigged sloops sailing past a lighthouse within a crossbanded reserve on the lid, and additional inlaid cutters and escutcheon on the front. The interior is fitted with a velvet pincushion and various cuddies both open or covered by a rosewood lid with petite ivory finial; the tray lifts out to reveal a paper-lined storage compartment.
