Sterling Silver Corinthian Column Oil Lamp with Original Green Glass Shade

About the Item

Victorian Sterling Silver Corinthian Column Oil Lamp with Original Green Glass Shade Elevate your space with this magnificent Victorian sterling silver oil lamp, a stunning example of 19th-century craftsmanship and design. Its stately Corinthian column, adorned with gracefully climbing ivy, is set atop an early, unstamped six-stepped base, reflecting its historical authenticity. The meticulously crafted silver font embodies the exquisite attention to detail characteristic of the era. A double burner engraved with "Best British Maker F" is complemented by a finely pierced gallery, providing sturdy support for the chimney and its rare, original green glass shade. Oil lamps were central to 19th-century interiors, serving both practical and decorative purposes. The Corinthian column motif, influenced by classical Greco-Roman architecture, epitomized the Victorian fascination with neoclassical revival, exuding both strength and refined sophistication. The accompanying green glass shade, a rare and remarkable original feature, enhances the lamp's historical allure. With natural air bubbles captured during its creation, the shade exemplifies authentic 19th-century craftsmanship. It remains in excellent antique condition, with no cracks or repairs and only minor nibbles on the rim. This lamp is a timeless testament to Victorian ingenuity and artistry, making it an extraordinary addition to any collection or a distinguished centerpiece for an elegant interior. Condition Report The sterling silver column and six-stepped base are in outstanding condition, showcasing fine detailing with no significant dents or damage. Minor surface marks and wear are present, as expected for an item of this period.
