Vtg Victorian Style John Scott Hanging Library Oil Lamp with Rose Shade, Prisms
This is a fantastic mid-century reproduction of a Victorian hanging oil library lamp with hand painted rose transfer design on the milk glass shade and 30 4 prisms around the shade ring. I believe the maker is John Scott of England, but it is unmarked other than P&A on the wick knob.

The lamp has never been electrified and the font is complete with fill cap and wick. I do not have a chimney for it, so a chimney is not included. The frame looks like brass but has not been cleaned or polished, so it is dull and dirty with some spots of green verdigris, and some rust on some of the non-brass metal parts.

Nothing is broken, cracked, or repaired, but the ceiling canopy has a small finial screwed onto the bottom side where a smoke bell should have hung. The ring that sits on top of the shade does not match the larger shade ring, so I believe it did not originally go with the lamp. The shade and prisms are excellent with no noticeable damage.

The lamp measures 30" from top to bottom, the shade measures 14" in diameter, the frame measures about 14 across the middle. And the ceiling canopy is 5 in diameter.
