Domestic object - Lamps
These lamps would have been used in the late 19th and early 20th centuries for outdoor, industrial, or domestic lighting, before the widespread availability of electric lighting. The left lamp is a traditional lantern, likely used for portable lighting, either carried by hand or hung on a hook. It could have been used on farms, in railway stations, or in military settings. The right lamp is an oil or kerosene lamp, possibly wall-mounted and used in stables, workshops, or early automobile garages. The reflector helped to direct light forward, making it more efficient in dimly lit spaces. Both lamps have significant wear and damage, indicating long-term use and exposure to the elements.The image shows two old metal and glass lamps, both exhibiting signs of heavy wear and damage. Left Lamp: A rectangular lantern-style lamp with a metal frame and glass panels on all four sides. The glass is cracked and broken, with missing sections, and the metal frame is corroded and bent. A metal loop handle at the top suggests it was meant to be carried or hung. The interior appears hollow, where a candle or oil lamp would have been placed for illumination. The metal has a dull silver-grey finish, likely due to oxidation. Right Lamp: A cylindrical oil lamp with a flat back and a hinged metal reflector at the top. The base contains a round opening, likely where the wick holder and burner were originally inserted. The metal body is painted or enamelled, but the finish is chipped and worn. The top reflector is bent and dented, but the hinge remains attached. The flat back suggests it was a wall-mounted lamp, possibly used in barns, workshops, or railway applications.lamps, kerosene, lamp, candle, light -
