Here is an absolutely wonderful and quite rare oil burning lamp. It is very unique in the fact that the lamp is actually Chinese export porcelain. It has really nice enameling and pierce work along the top. There is a signature of the maker on the exterior of the lamp and I hope you can see it in the photographs. It is on a brass or iron patinated base which is rather ornate. Inside the lamp base on the porcelain there is an attached paper label which reads ? Manufactured by R Hollings & Co 547 Washington St. Boston. There is a brass font with a double burner. On the wick risers of the double duplex burner it reads ? Whight & Butler Improved Duplex Burner Birmingham and on the second riser most of the same words with the word Patent. The burner is in fine working condition. It is complete with a chimney and as you can see an absolutely spectacular ball shade in clear and frosted glass in almost in a slightly complimenting oriental flare pattern that matches the little floral designs on the earthenware. So here you have a rear and wonderful lamp - I would suspect it would be a long time before someone saw a similar example. This lamp is still in its original oil burning state. The lamp is 21? at highest (top of chimney) x 6? at widest and at deepest.
