Antique Original Rayo Center Draft Kerosene Oil Lamp with Flame Spreader 1885

Beautiful antique Rayo oil lamp, Patented in 1885--the date of production is 1905. No dents or large noticeable scratches--there is some very light scratching, some tarnish and some wear to the plating (it needs a thorough cleaning and polish--then it will really shine), and some kerosene residue on the lamp. Also comes with the antique cased green glass lamp shade. The shade also has some kerosene residue on it, some very tiny 1-2 cm scratches (about the width of a hair) and possibly a few very small flea bites on the upper rim--but no chips or large flaws that would detract from the beauty of this piece. There is a wick in the burner, and the knob does move it--although I did not twist the knob any further after seeing that the knob & wick were functional. Overall excellent antique condition, and you are definitely going to be impressed with this very well preserved Rayo lamp.
