Harvard Bronze Antique Oil OWL Lamp-Extraordinary Etched Victorian Shade
Antique Large antique bronze oil lamp. 24 inches high, 8 inches wide, base weighs about 8 pounds. This lamp looks to be originally a oil lamp that would of had a wick. The lamp lowers and raises to adjust the height. The top of the lamp base slides up separately as well. I have seen this lamp before with just the wick, not sure how it functioned. The area where the wick would have come out is threaded and the Harvard burner has been added. The lamp came from an estate of a well known lamp collector and restorer. The conversion is very well done.

The lamp is fitted with a extraordinary 6 1/2 inch etched apricot colored shade with 6 scenes of children, a flute player, dancer, and others. The shade also has a ribbed effect to the interior of the shade.

It also has original shade rings both top and bottom. What makes this lamp so rare is the owl figure. I have heard they call the lamp Roman Pompell Bronze Oil with Owl. The last two pictures show the lamp without the burner attached.
