Vintage blue glass oil lamp with a metal (likely brass or bronze) base and hardware. It features a blue glass font tank designed to hold kerosene or lamp oil and a metal burner mechanism. Key Features • Material: The lamp features a blue glass font and a dark metal base and top. High-quality materials like brass, bronze, or copper were commonly used in 19th and early 20th-century lamps. • Design: The base has an ornate, possibly Victorian-style design. The glass portion appears to be of a vibrant "cobalt" or "opaline" blue color, which was popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. • Functionality: It is designed as an oil-burning lamp, indicated by the wick knob and the structure of the burner. These lamps were often fitted with a glass chimney (not fully visible) to enhance the flame and reduce smoke.
