Antique Lucerne whale oil lamp
A most unusual little oil lamp. The lamp can be filled with lamp oil and wicks be pulled through the "spouts" and lit. There are no wicks in it at present and I have not tried it out myself. 3 Small brass lamp implements are hanging from the lamp, which is 53 cm high. The brass could be improved further by polishing. A very decorative item.
