About the Item
Lamp said to Carcel system mounted on China vase in Canton XIXth century. Bronze frame. This Carcel mechanism bears the name of its inventor Guillaume Carcel who, in 1800, developed his oil lamp (of rapeseed, for example) comprising a suction-repressing pump driven by a clockwork motor, which ensured the constant supply of the wick. The tank is no longer on the side: it is now under the burner. This floor lamp has a cylindrical wick burner and a movable glass holder to adjust the flame. The glass-chimney is throttled at the level of the flame. The Carcel lamp, deemed expensive and fragile, was reserved for a wealthy clientele. His widow and his son-in-law Mr. Zier, still held in 1821, the workshops and the shop at 8 rue de l'Arbre-Sec in Paris. This very expensive lamp is very fragile and was once considered a luxury model. Dimension 68 cm in height and 20 cm in diameter decorated with trees and flowers. This system is generally found on sheet metal lamps from the Restoration or Empire period, much more rarely on porcelain vases. This one bears the brand Dehennault 30 rue neuf Vivienne Paris and its key system works perfectly.
