Offered for sale is a beautiful pair of antique cranberry opalescent glass oil lamps manufactured during the late 1800s by Hobbs, Brockunier & Co. The first is a miniature lamp with a scalloped square base, beehive pattern stem, and cranberry opalescent seaweed pattern font. Affixed to the font is a stamped brass collar.

This lamp stands approximately 8 3/8 tall. The second lamp would have rested in either a cast iron bracket or a hanging oil lamp.

This lamp is round in shape with a Coinspot opalescent pattern and it has a brass collar and brass filler cap on the top shoulder. This lamp measures approximately 6 in diameter.

The overall condition of each lamp is good, however they both have internal cracks within the glass itself as a result of heat. Both lamps are extremely clean and. He fonts have beautiful color and clarity and I see no oil residue inside. The glass has standard manufacturing imperfections in the form of air bubbles, inclusions, etc. The brass pieces look great with no splits and they have a nice aged patina.

There is standard light rubbing to the bottoms from where they were slid around and the Seaweed lamp has a very slight wobble. Please be sure to check out my other auctions for more great items! 1880 Antique Cranberry Opalescent Glass Oil Lamps" is in sale since Saturday, December 18, 2021.
