English Antique Hinks & Sons Silver Oil Lamp
This exceptional Hinks & Sons oil lamp is a shining example of Victorian craftsmanship and design. Renowned for their innovative and high-quality lighting, Hinks & Sons rose to prominence in the mid-19th century, becoming a hallmark of excellence cherished by collectors of fine antiques.
This lamp was part of a distinguished collection loaned to the studio set during the filming of the acclaimed Downton Abbey series. While specific images of this particular lamp in use on the set are unavailable, its provenance and period-appropriate design align seamlessly with the visual authenticity that brought the Crawley family's world to life.
This particular lamp showcases a beautiful cut-glass crystal font paired with its original Hinks & Sons burner, preserving a slice of lighting history. It is crowned with a vivid green acid-etched glass globe, embodying the Victorian love for intricate artistic details.
The silver Corinthian column base features a detailed capital and a gracefully stepped design, reflecting the neoclassical influences admired during the Victorian era. Whether you are an antique collector or a lover of historic charm, this lamp offers an extraordinary blend of function, artistry, and cultural significance.

Very Fine Pair of Mid-Victorian Parcel Gilt Bronze Oil Lamps, by Hinks
By James Hinks & Son
Located in Lymington, Hampshire
A very fine pair of mid-Victorian parcel gilt bronze oil lamps, by Hinks, each modelled as a bearded warrior dressed in the style of a Saxon king with a crowned helmet, broadsword and double-headed battle axe, standing in front of a slender scroll support surmounted by a cut glass oil reservoir, all set on a shaped ormolu base encircled with a victor’s wreath of oak leaves, and raised on an octagonal bronze base, converted to electricity, stamped ‘Hinks & Sons Patent’ on the fitting. English, circa 1860.

They won a patent for ‘improvements in lamps’ the following year and swiftly launched the ‘Patent Duplex Lamp...
