The first lamp a perfect mate to this one sold, this example is in mint condition!

 

It's So Pretty! The top of the handle was originally part of the base (which is unusual) the handle itself was added to that piece and at that point is where the tiny dark line shows up. Who knows when this happened, but for sure it was 20-100 years ago. The handle is 100% secure, and I have a green one in my collection also. Again, the lamp is so very rare, glamorous, & it displays so beautifully the non-consequential thin line should not be a reason not to grab this treasure.

 

for your consideration is this artistically designed miniature figural Victorian oil lamp in the form of a French house in a very beautiful subtle gorgeous light blue. Again this handsome miniature lamp, burner  are being offered in near mint undamaged & in excellent working order. Although there are no chips and is being offered as made it does appear that the top of the handle has a heat crack oly on top and because it is ceramic and the bottom of the handle is unaffected it is much different & stronger than  glass. Originally there must have been an abundance of gold throughout the lamp as there still remains many traces. . The added antique opalescent shade brings attention in it's simplicity to the soft eggshell glossy blue.  Height is approx. 3 1/4" to the top of the collar, total length including the handle is 5". The lamp displays beautifully and is totally usable. I will gladly add a chimney at no cost if requested.
