Description

Up for auction is an outstanding 4-piece collection of vintage mid-century American glass kerosene oil lamps. This mixed collection features a matching pair of clear pressed-glass lamps alongside two distinct ruby red lamps. Each lamp retains its original character, featuring heavy pressed-glass bases and brass wick burner assemblies stamped by the famous Plume & Atwood Manufacturing Company (P&A Mfg. Co.) under their iconic "Eagle" model line.

The lot includes a matching pair of clear pressed-glass lamps featuring fluted pedestal bases, smooth round fonts, and clear glass chimneys delicately etched with a floral leaf pattern. Both clear lamps measure 6.25 inches in diameter at the base and stand 11 inches tall (without chimney), reaching approximately 18 inches in total height with their chimneys fitted. Both burners are stamped with P&A Mfg. Co. and Risdon markings.

Complementing the clear pair are two vibrant ruby glass lamps. The tall ruby lamp features a heavily embossed scroll-patterned base, a hexagonal-paneled font, and a clear glass hurricane chimney; it measures 6.5 inches in diameter by 12 inches tall (without chimney) and stands approximately 19 inches tall overall with the chimney. The smaller squat-style "onion" font ruby lamp sits on a molded base stamped with mold number 2038, measuring 6 inches in diameter by 7.5 inches tall without a chimney.

All pieces show appropriate age-related patina, particularly on the brass burner hardware, galleries, and wick adjustment wheels. Glass bases and fonts are intact with no major cracks noted; the clear lamps currently contain remnants of decorative blue fuel liquid. Please examine all photos closely for exact condition details before bidding.
