Beautiful Overshot Oil Lamp that, I believe, is English in origin. The English did a lot of tab footings, as is shown on this piece. Also, European overshot, used the same color of overshot as the piece itself, whereas, the Americans used clear overshot, even if the piece was colored. The color goes from a light cranberry to a dark, rich cranberry at the top. THIS IS NOT flashed, but true cranberry glass. There are 14 tabbed crystal feet. There is no damage at all to the glass. The wick holder unscrews and is in excellent condition. The chimney glass is in perfect condition, and, I believe, by looking at it, seems to be the original glass. This piece is Circa 1880's. Overall height is 11 1/4"". The widest point, is the bottom feet, 4 1/4"" across. All hand blown.
