About the Item

This matched pair of solid cast bronze figural cherub oil lamp bases are unmarked, but presumed to be made in the United States during the Victorian period. The bases are very detailed in their casting on all four sides and feature figural snakes or serpents that sit in the raised arms of each cherub base. As photographed, there is only one original burner and one amber font, so these bases can be fitted with tops of your choosing, or enjoyed as well executed decorative sculptures.
