I have here an Antique Vintage Clear Glass Oil Lamp w/Eagle
Brass Burner P&A Mfg Co + Chimney 18½” . My mom always had this lamp in her house and I do remember my parents
using it when I was a child when we lost power. I don’t know if my parents
bought this lamp in the 1950s or if it was something one of them had from
earlier decades (their parents), but I do know that it is old!! When cleaning out my mother’s house 10 years
ago, I took the lamp and kept in it the closet of my Maine home just in
case. I have now sold both my city and
country home and have moved into a retirement community (with a generator!) and
have no use nor space for this very large and heavy lamp! It had a very small
amount of oil and an oil soaked wick in it. I disposed of all that and cleaned the lamp up the best I could. The base of the lamp is a very heavy, thick glass with a
vine and scroll design around the base.
The base measures 6 5/8” in diameter.
Atop the base is the brass burner that says “ EAGLE ” on the top of
the outer edge. The screw knob (to roll
the wick up and down) says. “ P.&A. MFG. CO. THOMASTON, CONN. MADE IN
U.S.A .”. The burner could use a good
cleaning I’m sure. Also included is the
chimney (what I would call a globe) that is made of much thinner glass than the
base of the lamp. All in it measures 18
½” tall from the bottom of the base to the top of the chimney. There are no cracks or chips. It really looks great for its age. Also included is a BONUS BRAND NEW PACKAGE
of 2 8” LAMP WICKS (original “Woolworth” price tage of $1.59 still on it
(this package is probably 40 years old!!). It's a great lamp, It just have no use and no space for
it!! I do hope someone can use it. I have many other interesting
