French 19th Century Bouillotte Lamp

About the Item

French Bouillotte lamp with its original painted green tole shade. Bouillotte is a card game that became popular in France during the 18th & 19th centuries. For light, they would use a bouillotte lamp. This particular one is brass with 3 candelabra arms with faux wax candle covers. As the candles would burn down one would use a key, where the shade connects the middle shaft, to lower the shade as the candles burned down. Allowing the players to be free of glare. Recently rewired by a professional for the US using UL listed parts.
