Wall Mounted Electrified Oil Lamp with Ruby Hobnail Shade

Collectibles : Lamps, Lighting

 

I found this wonderful old oil lamp at a local estate sale and even got to take if off the wall. The paint on the metal (cast iron?) was chipped badly so I repainted it. The fenton shade still has the sticker on it and sells for $175 by itself. It is a ruby hobnail shade and is in excellent condition. There was no chimney with this lamp but it would look better to add one. It has been electrified and works well. The maximum distance from the wall is 13". It fits into a wall bracket which allows it to swing from side to side. The shade 6 1/2" bottom diameter, 6" high, and 5 1/2" in diameter at the top. the overall height of the lamp is 9" without the shade and 15" with the shade. It would be easy to convert this back to oil is so desired.
